Pointillism Paintings

 
 
Students learned about George Seurat and pointillism.  Then they got to explore painting using dots.  They had a lot of neat ideas and did an amazing job.
 
 

Art Inspires Art

 
One of my students put a lot of extra time and effort into his paper mache dragon.  It was so much fun to watch the progression of the project. He was very proud of it.
 
I love it when students take off with an idea and make it become a reality. I enjoyed it so much, it inspired me to do a watercolor painting of his creature to give to him.

Maples Blues Blast

 
These pieces of 7/8 student work were part of the Maples Blues Blast fundraiser.
 

Value in Art

 
Students created a maple leaf with patterns in ink and then used a gradient of color to complete the background.  They had to mix their own paint to achieve the different values of a color.
