RODEO ART

Middle School Artists are working on their Rodeo Art! 

5th Grade Line Hand Drawings

LINES! We learned all about the different lines with this fun, catchy song.

Then, we started tracing our hands all over the paper. Filling in the shapes, we experimented with different line patterns and repetition.

Warm/Cool Color Circles

5th Grade Art learned about warm and cool colors! They each drew and designed a warm and cool circle. Check out our awesome designs on display! 

Symmetrical Complimentary Colored Creatures!

4th Grade Art reviewed symmetrical balance. Using symmetry, each student created a "Complimentary Colored Creature" using Red/Green, Yellow/Violet, Blue/Orange color combinations. Check out our awesome creatures on display!

Drawing from Observation

7th/8th Grade Art is learning about "Drawing from Observation" which is defined as drawing or painting from life. Some examples are still life drawings, figure drawing, and landscape drawing. We are going to be drawing scenes from everyday life, in the classroom. 

First, we made "view finders" to narrow our perspective and form the composition of our drawings. 

Here is a student example from a few years ago. 

Teacher's point of view! 

Mini Me's On Display!

Where's Waldo?

Can you find "Waldo" (Mrs. Kilpatrick) in the crowd of mini-me's?! We had fun drawing our self portraits, and now they are on display! Come see if you can find your own portrait! 

7th/8th Grade "All About Me" Collages

7th/8th Grade Art reviewed collage art. We discussed what "communities" we are a part of, i.e. family, school, geographical, religious, clubs/sports, etc. Then, we talked about how those communities influence our every day life. These collages will tell the audience about our selves and what is most important to us! 

Here's an "All About the Teacher" example! Can't wait to share our progress!

PS. Bring magazines to class! :)

Middle School Selfies!

Middle School art started working on their #selfies! 

Finished iPhones are in the hallway!

Lower School Self Portraits MINI ME'S!

The first day of art class is for learning classroom procedures, sharing our favorite colors, and drawing people! We learned how to draw our body with the proper proportions. We will add the details and characteristics that make us unique!

Psalm 139:14 "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made!"

   

 

Starting the year off with Self Portraits!

Lower school art will create "mini me" self portraits! 

Middle school art will create #selfies as a "get to know you" project!  

Welcome back to school! I am excited for the new year and all the fun projects!

This year, our theme is from Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord your God with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.

3rd Grade Architects!

Our final project in 3rd grade turned us into architects! We learned about architecture and the design of all types of buildings: restaurants, schools, book stores, houses, hospitals, pet stores, and many more!

Pointillism in 2nd Grade!

2nd Grade Art learned all about Georges Seurat and his painting style called, Pointillism. We watched the Seurat episode of "Art with Mati & Dada" to see how the dot painting started. 

Using the back of old pencils, we created our own Pointillism paintings! 

Here's an example and some of our student work! 

 

4th Grade Cave Paintings--Cave of Lascaux

In 4th Grade Art, we learned about the Cave of Lascaux in France. Since the cave paintings on high up on the cave walls and ceilings, we are drawing our cave paintings under the tables.
