This winter and spring of 2013 I am a resident art teacher at Lincoln Elementary School in South Corvallis. I am visiting 4th and 5th graders in 3 classrooms every other week for a total of 12 classes. Each class I will do different art projects with the students ranging from drawing and painting to clay! The idea is to expose students to different art media, teach them basic fundamentals and techniques, and encourage their artistic self-expression! I wanted to share some of the projects here!
OPPOSITES ATTRACT! In this lesson, the students learned about primary and secondary colors, Mixing colors on a palette and complimentary colors. Students created landscapes that utilized complimentary colors in order to make their paintings "pop".
I am a teaching artist and I help students of all ages discover their artistic voice through drawing, painting, clay and mixed media. This blog is a place where I can post pictures from my various art classes and keep a visual record of the art projects that we do. It's a great way for me to keep track of projects as well as share class projects with parents and students. Please submit e-mail address below to follow me and keep up with students art work! Class offerings also listed below.
