Third graders practiced adding value(shading) in their art to help show dimension. You can see the amazing results here in these beautiful pumpkins!
In celebration of Black History month, students in 2nd grade looked at the artwork above from Jacob Lawrence's Migration Series. In paintings and words, Lawrence told his community's story of African Americans who journeyed from the rural South to the urban North between the World Wars in search of a better life, a movement known as the Great Migration.
Students worked in teams to study the work of art seen above and were asked to respond to the work using found objects. Students collaboratively created a new work of art and explained how their new creation responds directly to the artwork of Jacob Lawrence. Here are some shots of their teamwork and final results! Students in 6th grade have been learning all about one point perspective during first quarter. In the project below, you can see how they applied their knowledge to make it appear as if we are looking up into the trees!
Pre-KPreschoolers explored a multitude of artistic practices during this project. They started by exploring color mixing. Each student got a piece of red and blue model magic. They were asked to mix the colors together to see what new color it made! To their excitement they made purple! Once they formed a sphere with their clay, they used pipe cleaners to create different line designs to ultimately form their very own unique sculpture!
First grade students created these adorable mixed media pieces of artwork using air dry clay, popsicle sticks, and tissue paper. Here are some examples of the cutest things I've seen all year!
First grade students created these beautiful works of art in many stages. In the first stage, students painted a background using horizontal lines. In the second stage, students collaged their penguins and drew an iceberg for the penguin to stand on. After the penguin was attached to the background, students painted snow using q-tips. Once the paint was dry, students created warm clothes for the penguins using scraps of paper. Here are the results!
We had so much fun in Kindergarten making these mixed media baby owls sitting on a tree branch! First we started by tearing strips of brown paper and gluing them down to make the tree branch look like bark. Then we took some cotton stuffing, rolled it into three small balls, and attached them to the top of the branch. We then added the details such as eyes and feet to our baby owls. To finish our piece we used a q-tip and white paint to make it look like it was snowing!
