Description
The Painted Pigs art project is a simple, engaging lesson designed for first grade students, where they draw a pig using basic shapes with black oil pastel. It includes adding a simple background like a horizon line or fence. Students then paint the scene with bright tempera colors. They are encouraged to keep details large and simple for easier painting and to start with the background before the pig. Finally, they outline their work with diluted black paint to enhance contrast, combining drawing and painting skills while promoting creativity, bold color use, and confidence in young artists.
