Still Life Drawing

5th grade worked on drawing things from real life.  We talked about focusing on the lines and shapes they saw, instead of trying to draw the objects from memory.  They had an object at each table and had a certain amount of time to draw each object, then rotated tables to draw different objects. 

Monet inspired water lilies

First grade recently completed water lilies inspired by the artist, Claude Monet.  We learned about Monet and his style of art, then created our own artwork that was in a similar style.

Moonlight Tree Silhouettes

5th grade just finished learning about value.  We worked on making value by doing a "value scale" from the moonlit sky.  They used charcoal and acrylic paints to finish their artwork.  I love how they turned out!  

"Scream" inspired art

3rd graders studied artist, Edvard Munch, who painted the famous painting, "The Scream".  Students learned about Munch and made their own artwork inspired by The Scream.  They loved posing for their picture to include on this painting!

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

1st grade read "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by Eric Carle.  Then, we made caterpillars in the style of Eric Carle's illustrations.  They turned out great!  I love similar, yet different, they all are!

Urban, Suburban, and Rural Drawings

3rd grade just finished their Urban, Suburban, and Rural pictures.  Many of the students were learning about these types of communities in their homerooms, so it was nice to draw some visuals and refresh their memory! They turned out great!

April Showers!
