Students chose animals for this project that somehow represented themselves. They went through a sketching process to choose the layout they would be using. If their animal was simplified, the students broke the shapes and spaces down similar to a kaleidoscope or stained glass. Students could choose a horizontal or vertical format also. Once students began to think of color, they needed to choose two color schemes: one for the foreground and dominant object (animal) and another for the background and subordinate objects. Students could choose between watercolor, tempera and acrylic paints for the project. Along with the choice of paint, students could use tints and shades of the colors included in the color scheme as well.
