Warm and Cool Colors



This week we looked at many different works of art that use warm and cool colors. The conversation was fabulous! Students then created their own organic garden using watercolors. The results are fit for a beautiful Spring bouquet!

Neighborhoods and Color Exploration Station!

This week we discussed neighborhoods and communities. Students created their own creative neighborhood using permanent marker and watercolor.




We also had a color exploration station! Students had an opportunity to mix and name their own color. It is hanging up in the office window. Be sure to check out the names. They are very creative! There is a mango tango, purple princess crown, pickle free green... and so many more!

An Art Bakery or a Bakery of Artists!



Today we took a look at work by Wayne Thiebaud. Students painted some awesome and very tasty looking cupcakes using primary and secondary colors. These would look amazing framed and hung in a bakery... or in the kitchen at home!
