1. Fold your 9”x9” paper in half two times.
2. In pencil, write your name on the back, and trace your fold lines with pencil to make them darker.
3. Use oil pastels. Start in the middle with a small colored circle. Keep making bigger and bigger circles until each square is filled.
4. Color them in nice and dark!If we put all of our drawings together they will look like a giant Kandinsky painting!!!
