2nd grade just covered organic and geometric shapes. They also learned about warm and cool colors. Then, we made this artwork that included all of those things!
1st grade experimented with printmaking. They took lots of round objects and printed them on their paper with black paint. Then, we worked on different lines and patterns to fill in the spaces.
3rd grade just finished learning about artist, Edvard Munch. They looked at his famous painting, The Scream. We took their pictures and used them in our own "scream" drawings. They drew what they could possibly be screaming about. I loved all of the creative ideas they had.
1st grade just finished scarecrows. They were able to choose their own patterned paper for their pants and shirts. I love the outfits that they came up with!
5th grade just completed some abstract "splatter art". We did this artwork by putting watercolor paints on our paper and blowing the paint around with a straw. After we did the splatters, we filled the background in with a line design. They turned out really neat!
2nd grade read the story, When Pigasso Met Moostise. We looked at Picasso's artwork and then made Frankensteins in a similar style. We focused on geometric shapes, crooked eyes, and crooked mouths.
5th grade just finished their "daydreaming self portrait". I took their picture and they were supposed to draw different things that they could possibly be daydreaming about. I loved how creative they were and I was able to learn a little more about each student!
5th graders had some free time, so I let them make some critters and creatures out of clay. I loved the details and how they turned out. Here are a few of my favorites!
3rd grade just finished artwork inspired by Kandinsky. They painted abstract, watercolor paintings. They experimented with color by mixing colors together to make new colors!
5th graders just finished their "color wheel landscape". We talked about background, middle ground, and foreground. We also talked about how mixing colors, makes other colors. Here are some examples!
3rd grade just finished their first project of the year! They made an abstract line drawing, focusing on lines and patterns. They turned out great and were SO colorful! :)
5th grade just completed their first project of the year! We made abstract art out of shapes. We talked about organic and geometric shapes and also talked about positive and negative space. They turned out really great.
Welcome back to school! I can't wait to begin art at Sharon this year. I have so many projects that I think the students will love. Let's have a great year in 2013-2014!
5th grade just finished "Op-Art" (the art of optical illusion). We did our op-art on scratch art papers. The colors and designs turned our really neat. Here are some examples.
