Wassily Kandinsky, a Russian artist from the late 1800s, was inspired by the loose painting style of the Impressionists and ended up pioneering the abstract art movement. This mural is a copy of one of his most popular paintings, and can easily be adapted for larger or smaller classrooms.

What a great piece of artwork!! Pravo!!! It gave me great ideas to do something similar to that!! I love the way that all of the colors mix together so well!!! Great, great piece of artwork!!
Looks great. Would love the pdf, how/where do I pay?
Thanks
What is the medium that you used?
I used Portfolio brand oil pastels. They make some of the best colors I know of.
You have some wonderful projects! I have a classroom art category on my site and I've posted a number of links from yours. I'm sure many of my visitors would be interested in your murals. Thanks for sharing!
I would like to purchase a mural. Which would be easier for 3rd grade- Kandinsky circles or Paul Klee?
Hi Erin,
I think they both would be fine, but if you have to choose the geometric shapes of the Klee Mural are probably a little easier to color.
We would like to use the Kandinsky mural for a Kindergarten art auction project. Our plan was to transfer your templates onto a canvas and have the children paint sections with oil paints. Are we crazy? Do you think a different medium would work better? Thank you...your site has helped this room Mom on several occasions!
Hi Debi,
I love your ambition, but I think that kinders don't usually have that great of control with paint brushes. And I'm not that experienced with oil paint. If you had a ton of supervision, you could maybe make it work, but it does sound a bit risky to me.
What if you were to have each child color theirs with the pastels and then modge podge them to a canvas, would that work?
