September wrap up

1st grade is working on a STILL LIFE painting where we are learning about pattern, overlapping and painting skills. These followed our collages we did previously. 

2nd grade:

2nd graders learned about COLOR through the art of Wassilly Kandinsky. We painted, primary, secondary, warm, cool and complementary colors. Our last set of circles was their choice. We used paint and oil pastel. 

3rd grade:

3rd grade reviewed warm and cool colors and learned to weave too. We painted two pieces of paper after drawing on it with white crayon. I cut the cool paper and they cut the warm paper I to strips to weave them through. 

4th grade:

4th grade reviewed warm and cool colors as well as the use of pattern in art. We created this collage in the style of the Austrian painter Hundertwasser. We painted using texture- two papers. One cool and one warm. We cut strips, glued them and created patterns with markers between. We cut circles and created our Hundertwasser trees. 

5th grade:

We are in the process of painting our Statue of Liberty project. Students drew the statue step by step then added a cityscape and details to make it their own. Next they used sharpie to outline. We are using watercolors, crayons, markers and oil pastels for this project.
