We all know that fall is a time when flowers and trees bloom into different beautiful colors. Today we are going to make our very own flowers. You can use as many different colors that you want. We are going to observe the shapes that flowers and leaves display in the fall. We will see the shapes in their details, and fragments. We will use paper plates and crumble and distort them, to make a whole flower that shows its different views.
