Steps:
1
- Work with your partners to plan your landscapes.
- Make sure the horizon lines will line up from one picture to the next.
- Decide what details you will add to your part of the scene.
- Each person in your group choose one different object as the main focus for your picture, for example, a cloud; a tree; a house.
- Use Crayola stamper markers to add colour and detail to your landscape.
- Use different Crayola stamper markers to create different objects, such as the blue paw prints for clouds.

- Once you have each finished your piece of the triptych, place the drawings in the correct order to make a complete landscape with a flowing horizon line.
- When you are sure your group is finished, glue your triptych onto a piece of contrasting construction paper about 11.4 cm x 30.5 cm (4.5" x 12").
- Remember to glue the three sections in the correct order.
- Stand back and view your triptych with fresh eyes.
