Description

In order to avoid get rid of stereotypical ideas about natural objects and instead to look for nuanced shades and, mixing colours and as well as trying to understand what can be emotionally expressed with through these activities, the teachers by of Pārdaugavas Music and Art School conducted practical exercises for with children, and came to the following conclusions:• that today stereotypical images created by digital technologies are the "muses" of urban youth.• the study of war colours, carried out by choosing and matching camouflage tones for military protective nets made by children and teachers for Ukraine in 2022 in Riga, improves the sense of solidarity and motivation to be ready to defend one's homeland.• we found that there is a need to train art teachers need training to increase their knowledge of colour tone teaching methodology. Finally, we asked ourselves - where do we live? Does it have anything to do with nature and its shades, if in everyday life we identify and represent not only the beauty of nature, but also the shades of urban and war colours?
