Georgia O'Keeffe Style Flowers

3rd Graders looked at the artwork of artist Georgia O'Keeffe and noticed a few things: she paints flowers, she draws BIG and adds lots of details. 3rd graders followed suit and drew these oversized flowers from observation.

Silhouettes, tints, hues and shades

6th and 7th grade girls defined their silhouettes with paint and words describing them. First girls described themselves using a bubble map. Next they looked up synonyms for their describing words. They then wrote their describing words in decorative text. Lastly, they painted their silhouettes using tints and shades of colors they they mixed themselves.














Sports Logo Design

7th grade boys designed their own sports team and logo. They needed to come up with ideas for their sport, city, team name and logo. They then played around with interested texts and color schemes!
