Students learned about one of my favorite artists, Ted Harrison. He was a Canadian artist well known for his Canadian landscapes. We read the book A Brush Full of Colour and looked at how he depicted land and sea and how he used vibrant neon colors. Students worked on a large sheet of paper and got to choose between a number of different landscapes inspired by the artist to draw. I also provided stencils of Canadian animals to include if they wished. Students used neon colors to paint in their landscape any way they wanted.
