Cityscape Watercolor Paintings

Cityscape Paintings~Inspired by Paul Klee


By the First and Second grade Artists


"The Red Balloon" and "Castle and Sun" from Paul Klee's magic square series“The Red Balloon” and “Castle and Sun” from Paul Klee’s magic square series

In Paul Klee’s “Magic Square” series, Klee creates cityscapes that use a rhythmic repetition of mostly geometric lines and shapes, in colors that either trend towards the mostly cool or mostly warm. The resulting composition is balanced, harmonious and abstracted. 

We observed and discussed these characteristics, especially how Klee’s use of shape and color affect pattern, balance and rhythm.
