Recent assignments collected for the Quarter grade are:
Art Starts
Pastel Still life ...graded and posted on STI
Chinese Brushwork practice sheet
Pastel Still Life work on display
Please stop by and enjoy the wonderful hall displays. Across from the classroom you will find the grade 7 Pear Still life work. Students could chose regular or oil pastel as well as how they would organize the finished product. We have some wonderful fruit still lifes with fabric, one grouping of 9 different pears mounted together(Andy Warhol influence), and most students chose two to three drawings mounted as a whole art piece. I was very pleased with the student work. I have had many wonderful comments on the student work. I hope families will treasure the art created by each student. Grade 6 has fabulous fall pumpkin and gourd still lifes by the door. These are so nice and will be great for families to show in their homes each year at this time. It will be very hard for me to decide what to display at the Springfield Art Museum at the end of the year.
Chinese Brush Painting
All classes have completed a brush stroke practice sheet with the bamboo brushes donated by the Schmittling family. Students have really enjoyed learning to use the brushes. Thursday and Friday were spent learning to paint fish, bamboo, and a monkey. Students will be putting skills to use next week to complete a Chinese brush work painting...with poem and chop.
