Ist Grade Art Classes for Mrs. Zwiep and Mrs. Arendsen will be every other week on Tuesday Mornings. Please take note of your students art day and send kids to school in appropriate clothes. We will wear paint shirts when necessary but somehow some kids always find a way of getting messy. If your child should get paint on their clothes, it is tempera or watercolor meaning it should come out with any stain pretreater and a good scrub. (I recomend a product called Gonzo it is great at getting out the pigments in tempera paint.) We will be studying a variety of Art History this first semester including DeStijl, Fauvism, the Renaissance and more. We will also be focusing on the difference between lines and shapes and our colors, Primary (Simple), and Secondary (Compound). |
