Pre-instruction drawings-All students have finished pre-instruction drawings: hand, portrait, figure, and building with landscape. These drawings will help me to see each students' current art skills. It will be fun to measure our improvement by viewing these drawings at the end of the semester.
Elements of Art worksheets-All classes are just finishing the Elements of Art review. We have created mini samples of each Element: line, shape, value, texture, color, space, and form.
Still life studies-Seventh graders will start with drawings of pears in various art materials. After these basic value/shading studies the students will move onto a study of American artist, Georgia O'Keeffe. We will concentrate on large floral pieces.
-Sixth graders will work on pumpkin and groud drawings.
Visiting artist-We will have a visiting Chinese brushwork artist come into the classroom possibly on Friday. This has been made possible through Springfield Regional Arts Council.
What's with the colors this time??? email me for bonus points!!!
Keep in mind---1. Students should be saving Starburst and gum wrappers for a recycling project. 2. The art field trip will be in December and be a cost of around $8.00 per person.
