We begin with getting to know him.. and his passions for the simple things in life.
Then... we learn some perspective drawing with simple forms. A little focus on tints and shades for our added understanding.

Kandinsky. Keith Haring. Grant Wood.
3) Grant Wood- American Painter from Iowa
Landscapes - Folk Art Landscapes
Perspective- foreground, middle-ground, background
Pattern / Visual Texture / Line
2) Keith Haring- 2nd grade is going to be awesome at this:
A wild guy that began a movement of motion based on simple lines and solid shapes.
Haring moved to New York City in 1980 when he was just 20 years old to attend college at the School of Visual Arts. This was an exciting time to live in New York City because a lot of exciting things were happening in the art world. Haring was excited to be a part of it all, but because he didn't have a lot of money, he could not go see artwork he loved in the big museums and galleries. Haring thought this was unfair and believed that art should belong to everyone and that it should be free to the public. This inspired Haring to begin creating his artwork places where everyone could see, like the subway and on sides of building. Soon, people began to take notice of his fun, cartoony style and he became one of the most famous artists of his time!
Then we work in some practice.

2015-2016 Kick Off!
Welcome Back Bulldogs!
Lets get right into this!!!!!!
Grades 4 and 5
Topography Creations.
(idea)
What is topography?
Organic Shape - organic shapes are free-form, unpredictable and flowing in appearance. These shapes, as well as organic forms, visually suggest the natural world
Students begin with drawing an organic shape on a large piece of construction paper. After they have it cut out they re-trace it on another piece and copy the line only a little smaller. They keep this up until their pieces become small. Once all the pieces are cut out they start to glue them together and put a small piece of styrofoam in between them to get the height to really show. A suggestion is to try and place the styrofoam above one another, it will make it easier to press down once it has been built up.
Examples:
Grades 2 & 3
Collaborative Circle Painting Murals
Book: the dot
(idea)
Creativity takes Courage - so lets share in our first art experience of the year together.
