More Alexander Calder
While visiting the MoMA (Museum of Modern Art) in New York City, I saw more works by Calder, which was our featured artist on the "see what they saw" series #02.
I love the shadows on the wall...every angle creates a new composition. This month we are going to see how shadows affect composition on our walk to school and you can do the same. We will share our discoveries and creations. Send us yours for us to post too...I love to "see what they saw"!
