Shape Challenges

We are beginning our unit on shape taking a close look at how artists use shape to construct, paint and create their work. This week we started with the book Not A Box by Antionette Portis. It is a clever little book that illustrates how one shape can be many things with a little imagination. Next, we took a look at some of Sonia Delaunay's paintings that are full of many shapes. After much creative discussion students got started on their project by beginning with one simple square and constructing an image. The variations were awesome. This is a school full imagination!
