Middle School

Middle School students started with a fun graffiti art project and a lesson about line and texture. First we watched a video on how to draw bubble and block letters and later they were introduced to various of ways how they can create a texture of a wall so they can incorporate it in their graffiti design. Students were encouraged to choose their own technique and art material that will work best for their idea. They finished some really cool graffiti designs using variety of medias and tools from water colors and tempera to sharpies and oil pastels.

Preschool

Playing with stencils, tempera paint and different painting tools. What a lovely mess :)

Graffiti

High School students are working concurrently on two units EO1-Sketchbook Unit and EO2-Principles of 2D Art. Students are using their sketchbook during art class in order to document written and visual information, to practice and develop ideas, but are also encouraged to use their sketchbook at home as an ongoing tool for investigation, growth and discovery. 

We started the EO2 Unit with a lesson about line, value and texture. Students incorporated those elements of art in an art work while choosing their own technique and art material that will work best for their idea. They finished some really cool graffiti designs using variety of medias and tools from water colors and tempera to sharpies and oil pastels.

Young Architects

My 6 year old students learned a new term in art class- Architecture. First we read the super-fun book Iggy Peck Architect, next we discussed what is needed to become an architect and finally, we designed our own building. We incorporated a lesson about lines and finished it with adding splash of paint in the background.

Lines, lines, lines

Lines are the foundation of all drawings. We are having fun with different types of lines with level 7.
At the end, we are going to cut the individual artworks and combine the pieces into a one group painting. Can't wait to see the final artwork.
