Chihuly Cylinder


This simple project for 1st grade was a great review of warm and cool colors while introducing the works of glass artist Dale Chihuly. We viewed his cylinder glassworks and compared them to his paintings of cylinders. We watched videos of Chihuly painting and noticed how much movement he used and how fast he worked. Then we made our own cylinders using oil pastels working quickly. We painted our backgrounds using watercolors.
