Students learned about the Japanese artist, Yayoi Kusama. After looking at her artwork and learning about her life they created their own Kusama inspired collage using some of Kusama's popular themes of repetition, patterns, polka dots, and pumpkins.
Students used clay techniques like slab building and blending to make their own original underwater creatures out of clay. They then painted them using more than one color.
Students looked at the work of African American abstract painter, Reggie Laurent and combined both organic and abstract shapes together in a similar style to Laurent. They then decorated their work and added details in the form of different types of lines.
