For Russian artist Wassily Kandinsky, music and color went together. Kandinsky was an abstract painter, and cellist.  He created a collection of abstract paintings that expressed how he "saw" music as color.  Here is one of his paintings called "Lyrical" that he made in 1911.

Georgia O'Keefe was an American artist who was interested in Kandinsky's ideas about making music in visual art. Around 1920, Georgia O’Keeffe created paintings that she said explored “the idea that music could be translated into something for the eye.” In the painting "Blue and Green Music" below, do you think O’Keeffe’s colors and shapes look like Music?

YOU'RE THE ARTIST
Listen to MUSIC.  Draw lines and shapes as you listen that match the sounds and rhythms that you hear.  Add color to match how you SEE the music.
