First graders welcomed spring by creating a beautiful still life painting. Spanish moss was used to create texture, and the flowers were painted with sponges. |
Claude Monet was the inspiration for these chalk/oil pastel drawings. Students looked at Monet's Japanese bridge paintings, and then made their own landscapes, complete with bridges and ponds. |
Third graders studied the culture of ancient Egypt, using King Tut's burial mask as inspiration for their own colorful mask creations. Hieroglyphs and Egyptian symbols adorn each mask. |
Students used watercolors on cloth to create these striking African mud paintings. Each symbol inside the animal was chosen by the students for it's visual interest and specific meaning. |
These colorful designs contain not only radial balance, but the student's names as well! Carbon paper was used to transfer the block lettering throughout the design. Warm and cool colors were used strategically to make the letters harder to read. Can you find the names? |
