Today we are going to work on symmetry and warm and cool color harmonies.
Supplies Needed: paper, pencil, medium of your choice (crayons, colored pencils, markers or paints), and a black marker
Step 1:
Fold a piece of paper in half.
Step 2:
Draw an object in the center of your paper. Think of the fold line as the center of symmetry. The object should be similar on each side of the fold. I used a cat for my example. What will you draw? A butterfly? A flower? An alien from another planet?
Step 3:
Draw a bubble outline around your object. Repeat the bubble outline until it goes off the paper in all directions.
Step 4:
On one side of the fold, color the paper using only WARM colors. Do you remember what colors are warm on the color wheel? (REDS, YELLOWS, and ORANGES)
Step 5:
Color the other side of the paper using only the COOL colors. Remember the cool colors are opposite of the warm colors on the color wheel. Can you name the cool colors? (BLUES, GREENS and VIOLETS).
Step 6:
Outline with a black marker, sharpie or crayon to make your image stand out.
I have attached photos with each step labeled on the photo. 
We have had a good turn out so far with our art prompt lessons. I can't wait to see who participates with us today! Feel free to share your artwork in the comments below. It brings a huge smile to my face.
Our next art prompt will be on Monday around 10am. Wishing you all a happy weekend.
