Kandinsky Circle Art

Art is a powerful way to express how we feel using shapes and colours. Inspired by Kandinsky’s famous concentric circles, students will create abstract art using shades of YUDU Magic Clay to explore layering, emotion, and creativity.

1. Explore the Artist

Begin by showing Wassily Kandinsky's Colour Study: Squares with Concentric Circles. Ask guiding questions to spark observation and discussion.

2. Choose and Roll Colours

Have each student choose 4-5 colours of YUDU Magic Clay. Roll each colour into a ball, from largest to smallest.

3. Create Layered Circles

Flatten the largest ball to form the base of their artwork. Place the next largest ball on top and gently flatten. Continue stacking and flattening each ball to form a layered concentric circle.

4. Make More

Invite students to create multiple circle compositions and arrange them in a grid.

5. Reflect and Share

Bring students together to reflect on their artistic choices.

6. Display the Artwork

Photograph each student's work for documentation. Create a group display called 'The Kandinsky Wall'.
