Break and Art Clubs

Just a quick note to tell all my students and their families that I hope you have a wonderful break! 

Also, if you are in an art club, there will be no art clubs during the week of conferences, which is the week after break. I look forward to seeing all my art clubbers the following week!

Have a splendid break!!!

2nd Grade Picasso Rooster Project!

2nd grade learned how to use line to create shape and texture by creating a reproduction of Picasso's Rooster. Here is a sampling of their finished projects!

3rd Grade Still Life Project!

Each third grade class completed a different still life, and here are a few samples of their finished projects! They learned how to use value and color to create the illusion of three dimensional forms.



4th Grade Self Portrait Project!

Here is a sampling of our 4th graders finished projects. They learned how to use pyramid composition to draw the viewer's eye to the face of the sitter, and learned how to mix different colored pencils using the burnishing technique.

5th Grade: Rembrandt Elephant Study Projects!!


Here are a few of our finished projects! The 5th graders did a great job, and I'm excited to see their progress as we continue our studies in the Renaissance!
