4th Grade - Unit 1 - Picasso Inspired Cubist paintings

    

4th grade students learned about artist Pablo Picasso and his very different styles of art through the different periods of his art career.  Then they focused on Cubism - the art style where object are reduced to geometric shapes, sometimes rearrange on the page and where multiple vantage points are used.  The students choose to create a cubist style portrait or a cubist style scene of a musical instrument.

Fourth Grade - Unit 1 - Haring Sihouettes

Fourth Grade students started off the year learning about Value by adding in white or black paint to another color.  Next, they learned about an American Artist who started off as a street graffiti artist in New York, Keith Haring.  They had fun drawing each other in different positions to create simple silhouetted figures in motion.   

They were also inspired by this video we watched in class of a dance troupe on America's Got Talent.  It helped them understand the concept of a silhouette and gave them additional ideas of how the human body can move.

4th Grade Stitched Monsters

4th graders had a blast creating their own monster buddy.  I love the way they all turned out so different.  We used burlap to cut out simple shapes.  The students learned a how to create any type of line they desired with a few simple stitches.  From their they stitched the monsters' faces and then sewed them up.  Awesome job 4th grade!
