POP ART HEARTS!

My fifth graders created these pop art hearts for Valentine's Day after visiting the Burton Morris website www.burtonmorris.com  They were inspired by the clean lines and bright colors.

Second Graders Working with Monochromatic Color

 

 

 

 

 

This week the second graders experienced Monochromatic painting. It ties in perfectly with Valentines Day, Jim Dine, and Tints. The most difficult part was teaching them to work back wards and go from light to dark - rather than the opposite. It was also challenging for them to mix the WHOLE pan of paint- rather than just the spot where they had "dropped" the paint.
