It's August and we are back in school! Art students learned about the three spatial planes in a landscape. They used oil pastels to paint a landscape with a foreground, middle ground and a background. Recycled cardboard was used as the surface board to create their art.
Students collaborated in groups of four to five people to plan, design, and paint a 3D sculpture. Students used cardboard and paper mache and paint to construct their ideas into works of art. Students then voted on their favorite projects from an exhibit of 20 projects. Below are three examples. The winning group project was the cheeseburger! Students were very competitive during this art lesson, and it was fun to see the winners faces when they realized they won!
