Winter Session Watercolors

This session is already going fast! We have been busy working on watercolors. The students learned different techniques: wet on wet, salt, blotting, and dry brush. They applied the techniques to their watercolor animals and flowers.
Enjoy the art!

Holiday Ornaments

We had our annual holiday party early this year. We were still in the spirit to make wonderful painted ornaments and listen to holiday tunes!

Grid Portraits

What a wonderful job my students did on their grid portraits! I am so proud of them!

Bennett is only in 2nd grade! What a fabulous job!

Fifth grader, Ashley, did a great job on her first self-portrait

Kelly drew a baby photo in honor of her little brother

Seventh grader, Hannah, did a great job capturing the likeness of herself!

Grid Portraits

This week and next week the art students are learning how to draw by using a grid. A grid is a system of squares that helps the artists zoom in and focus on one area at a time. They were asked to bring in a childhood photo to recreate as a drawing. We will shade them in pencil. I think they will turn out great! Check back for photos in a few weeks!
