Heart Fish and Koi Fish

 

PS&PK

In our art class for ages 3–5, children created this cheerful heart-themed artwork using paint and simple stamping techniques. Through this activity, students practiced fine motor skills by pressing, dotting, and controlling their hand movements. They explored colors, shapes, and repetition while learning how patterns can be made in fun and creative ways. Adding facial details encouraged imagination and emotional expression. This project helped build confidence, focus, and a love for creating while allowing each child’s artwork to be uniquely their own.

This week, our 6–11-year-old students explored koi fish through drawing and watercolor painting. Students practiced observing fish shapes, proportions, and flowing fins while using ink outlines and watercolor techniques to add color and pattern. They learned how to control water, layer colors, and create soft blends to give the fish a sense of movement. This lesson encouraged patience, focus, and creativity while helping students develop confidence in combining drawing and painting skills. Students will continue working on and finish their koi fish artwork next week.
