Amazing.

Here is just a sample of the wicked work coming in. I've even got a few kids working on an Ozzy and the Office.

Contrast Portraits

Teaching the concept of contrast and tone...

History...Principles...Elements

The first several weeks of class, we will be reviewing the elements and principles of design, as well as movements, artists, and art history. We will take the "final" exam the day before we leave for fall break. When we return, we will start our first project. Stay tuned....

Best Costume EVER!

My, that's one good lookin' kid. He looks eerily familiar...

I Must Be Crazy.

Wicked Cool Before and After

At the beginning of the semester, students were required to draw their self portraits. At the end...we did it again. Cool.

These Kids Never Cease to Amaze Me.

These are just a few of some of the great work these kids are coming up with. There is some real talent in class, this semester. Keep in mind...these are little 6th graders. Cool, eh?

WARHOL COMPLETE

Diligently Working

The Andy Warhol Process

Just a few examples of the process to create our own "Warhol Masterpieces".

Test is Finally Over!

Well...the kids finally took the elements, principles, and movement quiz. Overall, they did pretty good. Over the next few weeks, we will be utilizing our new found knowledge of art to create and critique our own artwork. We will visit famous artists, such as Warhol, Picasso, and Van Gogh. Looking forward to a great Trimester...

Welcome Back!

It has been great to get to know all of you! The next few days should prove quite entertaining. We will be working on names and get a new (much anticipated) seating chart. Let's plan on Friday for our Written assessment and Monday for our Visual Assessment. Tuesday will mark the official beginning of our class when we start our first project.
