ArtI - Large Scale Self Portraits

Playing Catch Up {Part III}

6th graders completed some really fantastic large scale masks.

And 7th graders made some beautiful torn paper collage portraits of their favorite celebrities or animals.

Playing Catch Up {Part II}

Okay. So this school year has still be incredibly busy. We have been so caught up in learning and art making that very little time has been devoted to blogging! I apologize for my internet absence, but classroom stuff is top priority!

Anyways, last Thursday was the last day of the second 9 weeks and I wanted to say "fairwell!" to an amazing group of students and some very talented artists and creative actors!

Posterized Celebrity Portraits {7th Grade - 2D}

During the previous 9 weeks, the seventh graders completed some VERY impressive portraits of their favorite celebrities. I was not only impressed by the level of involvement and craftsmanship, but also the range of idols chosen.

Bill Murray, Jim Carrey, Russel Brand, Bernie Mac, and Adam Sandler represented the comedians. David Tennant and Harrison Ford for our Sci-Fi fans. Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson for the Hunger Games fanatics. Plus a lot of other musicians, athletes, and programmers.
