Cherry Blossoms

In honor of spring's return and Earth day this month, the student artists at Wilson have been practicing drawing trees and their complex branches! 

After looking at some photos of Cherry Blossom trees both around the world  and around our nation's capitol, we drew our own! 

First, students drew their tree and it's branches with pencil. 

Then, they painted their tree with black paint. 

Finally, they added pink tissue paper with glue to add the blossoms to their trees. 

They all turned out as unique and beautiful as the live Cherry Blossom trees themselves!
