Delicious Artwork
I have been doing some fun dessert art projects with 1st-4th grade. We looked at Wayne Theibauds work for inspiration and created an assortment of cakes and ice cream.

April showers
Kindergarten did some really cute rainy day drawings. We read the story "Rain Drop Plop", then students drew themselves under an umbrella. We used oil pastel to add color & a white pastel for raindrops. Then students did a blue wash over the picture to show our raindrop resist! Fun lesson & I love the personality that shows in the kids art!
After school painting class
I've been doing some after school sessions & we had some great results from tonight's class. Here are some pics-
A starry Christmas night for teachers!
I decided to try a little adult painting class with our rossview staff this week & it was a lot of fun! We did a Christmas version of starry night & I thought everyone did a wonderful job.
Kindergarten kandinskys
Teaching the art elements shape & color to kindergarten. It's always fun teaching them painting techniques & they think the oil pastel resist is magic! We read "the dot" and look at Wassily Kandinsky's circle paintings, then students create their own.
Second grade Asian arts unit
Second grade does Asia for arts in school night. This year we created scrolls, while learning brush work. We also did Gyoutaku fish prints, and koi fish. The students had some wonderful work when we were finished...
