2. Introduce the concept of abstract art and explain how artists use colors to express emotions.
Exploration:
1. Provide students with a variety of art materials such as paints, brushes, and paper.
2. Ask students to experiment with mixing colors and observe how different combinations create different emotions.
3. Encourage students to discuss their observations and share their thoughts on how colors can evoke specific emotions.
Creation:
1. Instruct students to choose an emotion they want to express through their artwork.
2. Provide guidance on color choices and techniques for creating abstract art.
3. Allow students to create their own abstract artwork using the chosen colors and techniques.
