A field full of daisies

Made by a student of grade 5

You need:
  1. white drawing sheet A3 size
  2. tempera paint in blue, green, white, yellow and red
  3. egg boxes or saucers
  4. brushes
  5. jars with water
  6. newspapers
  7. paper towels
  8. coloured paper for background
Daisies (bellis perennis) are, until it freezes, found in lawns. View pictures of daisies and discuss what they look like. 
Students start to paint the grass. They have to make their own green colors by mixing blue, white and yellow. Paint the entire sheet with small vertical strokes and let dry.

Then the daisies can be painted. In the front of the field daisies are larger  then further away. Use a small brush and a lot of paint, to make sure the green grass is really covered with the white paint of the flower. Use a different color green for the stalks or take the unmixed color green directly from the bottle. Paint the hearts of the flowers with big yellow blobs.
Paste the artwork on a matching background.
