Georgetown 5th Graders Explore Hundertwasser
March 9, 2012
Fifth grade artists have been working on a fun new Hundertwasser project. After viewing several pieces by Austrian painter and architect Hundertwasser and learning about his interest in nature and spirals, we began by creating a background while exploring tints and shades.
Hundertwasser- these were our inspiration pieces.
Painting the background – including Hundertwasser spirals.
Working on the faces.
Finished pieces with spiral collage flowers created with fabric and buttons.
A final fun collage. I love this new project!

I love this project, I just may have to try it with my students. I love how you’ve included so many different methods in one lesson!
Thanks, Ashley! My kiddos enjoyed it. I guess I tend to do a lot of multi-media projects this time of year – lots of review and use of materials and techniques we’ve been exploring all year. Hope you get a chance to try this one!
A great take on Hundertwasser! Will borrow this one thanks so much
