We BREAK for Art (post-break, that is!)

Hope everyone is having a relaxing break!  I just completed grading for Xavier and FAMU and things are looking UP!

School is back in session on Monday, May 2nd, so get ready for fun and extreme ART MAKING!

THIS IS NEEDED TO PASS THE PAINTING TEST!

5th Grade XAVIER Artists
Be sure to check the online grade book for the most up to date grades for art class.  The Do Now grades and the Color Wheels.  Students will have a chance to complete the wheels when we return.  The next project will focus on foundations in painting and color.  Remember that PAINTING test?  It's up to you to know the steps to cleaning your brushes properly and you will have to demonstrate how to do so when we return.  Good luck!

6th Grade FISK Artists

Prince Mural in Fort Hamilton

That GRAFFITI is looking so nice and I heard how you all were passionate about the process when Ms. Miller-Hughes covered my class.  I'm SO proud! When we return it's PASTEL time!

In the meantime, keep your eyes open...Have you noticed more street art going up around Brooklyn?  This piece is in response to Prince's death and it's near us!  Look at the colors and how they blend together.  You will be using soft pastels in your tags.  Make it count.

The test results are IN and the majority of students NAILED IT!  Great work!  This week we continue with value and line application.  You will not be disappointed but you must trust that my directions and your own creativity!

8th Grade MASK MAKERS

No duck faces, please.

Grotesque masks should be completed by end of class this Tuesday.  We will add sturdy wire to hang the work and show off the amazing creations.  I am SO proud of this group.

If you still need to get baby photos to me OR any other amazing photos you want to share with your graduating class, please email them to me ASAP.  Thanks!
