Tuesday, July 6, 2010. School Year 2010- 2011! Time For A Makeover! As the new school year is quickly approaching, I have decided that my art room and the wall outside the art room needs a makeover before all those little artists come back. Thank goodness I have a friend, Julio, who has been wanting to gain experience in painting murals and agreed to do one at our school free of charge! Here are some pictures of what Julio has finished so far:. I can't wait to see what the finished fish will look like!

Strange Art: October 2011
http://jstrangeart.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 8, 2011. Dia De Los Muertos. We first folded our paper then drew half of our skull and cut that out. We focused on The Elements of Art to produce the line design on our skull. The key is to have a balanced composition. Not too much and not too little. I stress to the kids to have clean and organized thoughts on paper. No scribble scrabble! Trace with a thin sharpie then color in with thin crayola makers. Day of the Dead. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 5th grade close up pumpkins.

Construction paper for border. Sharpies- HUGE fan with Sharpies! I use them for almost every project. Even with Kindergarteners. Once I read T...

Strange Art: July 2010
http://jstrangeart.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 8, 2010. 9x12 White drawing paper. Oil Pastels- I have tried many brands of oil pastels and the one that works and blends the best is crayola. Watercolor Paint- warm and cool colors. We will draw the flower starting in the center and build our way out layer by layer with the max. of 5 layers (4 layer min.). The layers will be drawn with various lines. This will incorporate math as each layer becomes part of a radial design. See example below:. Wednesday, July 7, 2010. When I was student te...
