Ms. Lenzi - Grade 2 - Original Artwork



Ms. Lenzi's 2nd grade class has been studying the weather, so in art class they made a stormy picture. They used masking tape to make the birch trees, and addewatercolor and crayon to create a landscape they way artists do.
Hope you enjoy looking at them as much as they did making them.
