2.9.10

Wondering what is currently happening in the Art Room? Here's an update. For the first time this week We've provided student examples of work. Curious if its your students work? Call and ask!

Fashion Design:
This week in Fashion our models get hands! Students are learning how to draw hands based on basic shapes which will inevitably create more proportionate hands on their models.
Crafting for Etsy:
In Crafting for Etsy, student's learned how to decoupage this week! Each student was given a packet of recycled paper materials to use in their projects. Tomorrow, students will learn all about card making and creating their own stationary!


Painting:
Painting students are continuing their work on color theory and understanding color mixing. Eventually students will complete a 4-rectangle painting using oil pastel, acrylic paint, oil paint, and watercolor paints with each rectangle a different medium. The painting they do is a copy of a master artwork. Below is a students work from last semester.

Graphic Design:
Students continue to work on their business cards. Below is one student's in progress work on the front of her business card. The second image is another student's work on the backside of his business card. Students are also required to create a hard-copy of their business card on paper.


Drawing:

Students are continuing their work on color theory and understanding color mixing. This will continue for at least another week.


3D/Sculpture:

Right now, students are beginning work on sculptures using clear plastic CD dividers. Students are required to use at least 50 CD's, and no more than 100. To teach our students that art projects can be made from many different materials this project was developed out of many boxes of CD's that were donated to the art room.

Ceramics:
In ceramics, students are continuing learning the basics of hand-building. They are each creating a mug that they will glaze to complete. Two student's examples are pictured below before glazing.
