Eli's Mad Dance Skillz


Taken by Jon on his iPhone.
I have a theory that Eli thinks he's "breakdancing"?
Too funny!

Zane has new artwork

Description from Artsonia:
"The students first painting experience and first Artist introduction was through the Dutch artist, Piet Mondrian. This lesson looks simple but we cover a lot in the introduction. The students are introduced to the Artist by looking at a book of his paintings. The children observe how he changed from a Realistic style to an Abstract style. We defined that Abstract means something does not appear real. The paintings we did were totally Abstract and just an arrangement of line, color and shapes. The children were then asked to draw "Horizontal" lines, and "Vertical" lines. Most of the students knew what "Diagonal" lines were, but they did not know the other two directional lines. The last element was the addition of Primary colors: Yellow,Red and Blue."

Zoe has new artwork

Description from Artsonia:
"The students used what we learned in our Positive/Negative lesson to make stencils to create an African Mask. They cut a symmetrical head out of black paper and then built up the face by cutting their own stencils out of a tag board paper. We used oil pastels to make the color in the stencils. When done, the students mounted their mask on a color based on the African meaning for that color. Great results!"
