Rainbow fish - grade 6

Isn't this fish lovely? Today, we had another snow day (I've lost count of how many this has been) and I wanted to come up with something special and fun that my little group could do today for art. While browsing images on flickr, I came across this drawing of a beautiful, colorful fish that I knew my students would love.

I quickly talked to them about how to draw the fish, focusing on droopy fins and flowing lines. They used thin Sharpie to trace their lines, and to add details inside the fish's body. Then, they used pencil colors to color them in. Love them!
