We studied and analyzed pictures of real ghost trees from nature. Children noticed that they were probably called ghost trees because of their empty branches. These trees were bare and their branches were made of wavy and bending lines. The were almost white in color. We also discussed how color can make the viewer feel a certain way. They were quick to note that using whites and blues in artwork gave a calm, even sad feeling. They were able to draw their own ghost trees using cool blue/white oil pastels and wavy lines. The artworks are all beautiful and a little bit mysterious....
