Ernesto Neto is a Brazilian artist that used organic shapes to create installations and sculptures.  The kids looked at his work and created organic shapes with paint.  We learned about tinting (adding white to a color) and shading (adding black to a color).  This project took a while to make, but it was worth the work!
