Winter classes are posted here. Classes are small and fill up quickly!
The fall session is all wrapped up. Here's a few highlights…
American graffiti artist Keith Haring, was the inspiration for our first project of the fall session. Students worked in teams to trace each other and then filled in the negative space painting as many different types of lines as they could think of.
Kids in this class ranged in age from 5-8. Awesome work!
I wish we had the space to hang these all together.
A fun and successful lesson on line, positive and negative space.
I had to take advantage of all the beautiful fall colours.
After careful observation of our beautiful leaves, we discussed the organic forms and free flowing colors in the leaves and compared them to repeated structured patterns we had been creating in other projects. We also talked about the color wheel, warm and cool colors and complimentary colors. Not just a pile leaves!
Step 1: Oil pastel rubbings to get the outline of our leaves.
Step 2: Working wet on wet with liquid acrylic inks.
Step 3: Sprinkle salt onto the wet blue background ink and let them dry.
Students had a restricted color palette and were encouraged to mix their colors to achieve a wide range of warm colours. I often have returning students, so we had substituted an apple for a pumpkin and changed the color palette to keep the project fresh.
Ta Da!
Some of the positive and negative paper cut outs put together for a striking graphic!
One hour of art goes by very quickly and often i do not have time to take pictures! Luckily one student had held on to all the books we had me made this session and I got a quick shot.

ReplyDeleteThe blog is very interesting. And the paintings created by children are very beautiful. Really art plays an important role in every one’s life. It helps to improve your creativity skill. My son is also very much interested for drawing and painting. So last week I took his admission into Euro Art Studio which locates & serves for teens between 4-17 throughout the New Jersey, USA. It offers Art classes for children and teens in a wide range of mediums and by a certified Art teacher as well as working artist. I am very happy that he got a very good platform to show his talent.
