About this School Project (Palette Knife Landscapes)
First grade artists used Etel Adnan as an inspiration for their landscapes. The Lebanese-American painter used a palette knife to create color block landscapes; and students were asked to identify the colors of the foreground, mid ground, and background. Rather than using a paint brush, students practiced using a palette knife to apply the paint to their paintings.
