7th & 8th Grade - 2-Point Perspective Graffiti Name Walls

“Impressed” is an understatement. “Totally blown out of the park” sums it up pretty good! Check out the 7th & 8th grader’s 2-Point Perspective city graffiti walls! First project of the year and they nailed it! Way to go artists!!

 

5th & 6th Grade - Graffiti Name Drawing

What better way to kick off the school year than graffiti name drawings?! 5th-6th graders practiced hand lettering and created their name in graffiti style. We discussed and practiced graffiti features such as color value, gradients, highlights & shadows. Needless to say, I'm impressed!

5th & 6th Grade - Big Eyed Animal Collages

Look at those EYES!! 👀 💙 5th-6th graders made BIG eye animal collages. It was a long and TOTALLY fun process, making our own abstract texture papers, drawing eyes/noses and learning how to make fur using India ink. To give you an idea of the scale of these, most are bigger than a desk calendar.

5th & 6th Grade - "Cerealism"

Who’s hungry for some “Cerealism”!? 5th & 6th grade were inspired by the mosaic/collage artist Michael Albert. This guy makes art out of used cereal boxes. It’s our turn! Yum!!

 

7th & 8th Grade - One-Point Perspective Color Wheel Cityscapes

Color Wheel + Value + One Point Perspective ALL IN ONE PROJECT! Students practiced colored pencil techniques and how to mix them for a range of values. This could only be done by the most talented 7th & 8th graders!

 

 

 

7th & 8th Grade - Animal Grid Portrait Drawing

Hold your chins, and take a look at these jaw-dropping artworks done by 7th & 8th Grade artists! ONE SQUARE AT A TIME, students used the grid system to transfer a real photograph of an animal to their own work surface. These artists were so attentive to details such as the direction of fur and value changes! Applause!
