Welcome Ms. Castrodale!

We welcome Ms. Castrodale to our classroom. She will be with us for the next 8 weeks sharing her passion for art. I am excited to be working with her as we plan interesting new ideas.

collaborative art work

20 different students from 2-d art class collaborated to create this portrait of our assistant principal. Each student received several 1" squares that they enlarged to a 5" square. Their goal was to try to recreate the values as exact as possible. When they were finished, we put all the squares together and to their surprise, they recognized who they had created.

sketchbook due 3-14

OH NO...EARTH HAS BEEN INVADED!
• But you are the only human on earth who has met them! It is up to you to tell their story! Make a full page, color composition and tell the world the news that everyone is waiting breathlessly to hear: What do they look like? What can they do? Where are they from? What language do they speak? Why are they here? What are their names? How did they get here?
• Ok to include words, descriptions, or labels with your drawings. Make them attractive, as part of your page layout.
• Plan the whole page of your color composition-- You can include backgrounds and you can use more than 1 picture - like snapshots, closeups, families

sketchbook 3-7

Letter people:
Use Color ----- Fill the Page
Make a six letter word (or more). Your word can have repeat letters (like: Betty B.) but you can't use repeat letter people. Each letter is a new solution. Plan it first so the drawings will all fit!
