This project is using a method of crayon resist that I use often with my

Elementary Art students.

Here, the plateaus, plants, rainbow and stars are done with non-washable crayon.

The sky is painted with water tempera cakes.

We are using the SouthWest paintings from

Candy Barr as inspiration.

Surrounding storm

Things students will learn for this project:

What are WARM COLORS?

What are NEUTRAL colors?

What is CRAYON RESIST?

What is a PLATEAU?

BUTTE (small), MESA (medium),

What are SEDIMENTARY LAYERS?

Learn about LANDFORMS...

HOT AIR BALLOON

over the WARM PLATEAU

I have done a complete unit with multiple grades on the subject of

Hot Air Balloons.

See here...

Color all OBJECTS (plateaus, stars, balloons, rainbows, or details)

Hard with CRAYONS

Leave the SKY blank and white for the later absorbance of Water Paint.

Where there is CRAYON, the paper will RESIST the PAINT.

2nd graders working towards painting...

Sky Painted, stars appear!
