Currently, all classes are in the middle of larger art projects. The Bees and Little Eagles are creating life-size self-portraits. They will create be created using 3 separate panels that will be taped together. This week they created the first panel, which included the head, neck, and shoulders. Before beginning the paintings, we learned how to mix our custom skin tone colors.
Then we began painting our self-portraits and a background color of choice.
The Big Eagles and Elephants continued working on their Animal Adaptation project. They experimented using red, yellow and blue watercolor inks to create secondary colors on swatches of watercolor paper.
Using fabric animal prints and textures, the students mimicked the repetitive textures using colored pencils.
Next, the students began working on their final watercolor piece. They sketched out their animal and environment lightly in pencil, then began painting.
