*NEW* Meet me on Instagram @mrsmillersartroom where I will be posting photos of works-in-progress of our students' artworks! You can also check them out on the gray sidebar to the right on this Blog! Have a great week!Kindergarten
Most of the Kindergarten students have finished their line paintings with the primary colors (and green). They are just beautiful! We have been looking at a colorful sculpture by Michael Placzek. We observed that his sculpture is an artwork we can walk around. Students are now making their own line sculptures with strips of paper and glue! So fun!1st Grade
Our tissue paper printed papers are finished and oh so gorgeous! We're saving the paper squares that we used for something else later. We are now practicing our Miro-esque drawing on a dry erase board and then we'll draw it onto our patterned paper. Neon oil pastels will be used to color in some of the shapes we make.
2nd grade
Cave art continues! Chalk pastels have been used to add areas of color to our cave animals. We are going to draw a whole herd of animals on bigger paper that we have wrinkled up to make look like a cave wall. We will "sign" our papers with our handprints, just like the cave artists when we're all done.3rd grade
Fish are almost done! Eyes and details are being added. Students will be working on a background for their fish to swim in!4th grade
Landscapes are being painted with many different landscape colors (greens, oranges, tans and yellows). We are looking at how color has many properties including brightness... the property that gets turned down as objects get further away from us.
