I really enjoyed this class as Kandinsky had so many different styles and approaches to work with! Here is a bit of background on the pieces I've submitted. 

For the purple piece I listened to music and did a sort of "free association" with the shapes and colors that I heard. Sometimes I, too, see colors in sounds and volume, and I sort of assign sounds to scents. (I think of nose-tickly floral perfumes as "high pitched" for example. Do other students here do the same?) Using this gold paint was a lot of fun. 

For the black and white piece "Chan Chan" by Buena Vista Social Club was the inspiration 

Here are the bits and pieces that were turned into the concertina book. I used some of my grandmother's old gunny sack scraps for the cover. 

Here's a better view of the book.

I wasn't sure if these colors "worked" but in the end I ended up with some surprising color combinations that are worth exploring. For the next piece I took the original circles, added ink textures and watercolor "buttons" to cover an error then balance out that error for the composition. (Oops. Still, I like the look.)

This is a study of Kandinsky's markmaking. Some textures are mine; some are his. 

This is my original version of Thirty; the oil crayons made the work go *very* quickly and I wasn't happy with the end result.  (Meh.)

Here are my sketches for the Munich project. This is a mash-up of photos from Colorado & Nevada which I glued together for a new composition. For people outside the USA, the "R" is an homage to the letters some western towns mark on the hillside. The numbers came from local kids. I love the Club Rio sign. 

These buildings started out "splotchy" like Kandinsky's buildings, but I wasn't happy with it so I smoothed out the oil crayons and scratched details into the wax. I'm happy with this piece, even though it's not quite Kandinsky-like. 

My version of "Upwards" originally had the circle on the bottom, but I flipped it and liked it better. lol! The colors are atrocious but it was an experiment and I know not to do it again.  (Yuk.) The texture came from a dusting of salt. 

Phew! That's a lot to digest. Thank you for offering this class -- I learned a lot.
