The fish were the ‘vehicle’ for the students to learn about some of the basic elements and principles of design, such as line, color, texture, and pattern,” said Ms. Banks. “We discussed color theory such as warm and cool colors, color contrast as well as their own personal preferences.

“The students loved the project, and while we see the beautiful results, they got a lesson in design.”
