Hello artists and families,
I am thrilled to be back with this friendly community at TVES. Please stop in to the art room to say hello! Please send clean , smooth rocks in for painting and sharing on "World Kindness Day".
Students in grades 3-6 started the year with a collaborative project, which was fun and got kids working together and inspiring each other. Students worked on these dazzling mixed media pieces for many weeks, improving them and adding layers each week. First, students made interactive line drawings with their peers, focusing on enhancing each other’s lines and filling the whole paper. They then used watercolor as a group to create a background. The next week they stenciled on the entire picture, creating
layers of textures and colors. After that, they chose their favorite area and cropped it, cutting the large painting apart. Then they used colored pencils outline some areas, creating focal points and a sense of deep space. The last step was to use collage bits with glue to activate some areas and add sparkle.
