Spring is here!

In the art room projects have shifted from winter and snow to a more warm and flowery theme! 

Kindergarten is currently working on painted papers for a fun collage project based on the book Mr. Tiger Goes Wild!

First Grade is currently working on brightly colored stamped castle paintings based on the artist Paul Klee and his work Castle and the Sun!

Second Grade is finishing up their portraiture unit after celebrating February's Black History Month with the unveiling of two new Presidential Portraits for the National Portrait Gallery by the artist Amy Sherald and Kehinde Wiley.

Third Grade is studying the paintings of female artist Georgia O'Keeffe and is making their own abstract watercolor flower paintings. 

Fourth Grade is continuing their exploration of Modern Art by focusing on Optical Illusions in Art. 

Fifth Grade just completed the wrapped woven basket unit and is preparing for the clay figurine lesson in which they can create a bobble head or a garden gnome. 

So many fun projects going on!  Be sure to ask your children about what they are learning!
