Printmaking

In the month of December my classes had practice making prints. We did this in 3 different sessions.
The first day, they made the background.

Here is the background of a student who is 14yrs.

Then comes the other aspects to the scene...................

Then he added a bridge and a city scene in the back, all with handmade stamps.  Pretty impressive!

All of these pictures were made with stamping.  Sorry I didnt show you all the students pictures, There were so many to choose from.   See you next month in January,

Thanks,

Mrs. Calvert

November Art- Watercolor

Well, the tree went up early this year.   Since the watercolor picture took 3 weeks to make, (3 hrs total), the picture would be completed just in time to decorate the walls for Christmas.

The inspiration was from under the tree.  To get a few ornaments, some tree branches and a present or two.  The anticipation.  We were also able to focus on the element of intensity and how to draw a cube for the present.  We talked about Vincent VanGogh on the last day of class and had a short quiz about our knowledge of him.  

now they all have a great picture to put on their walls this season.  

Clearly, Im excited for Christmas, but I need to say,.......

Happy Thanksgiving

to you!

See you all in December for printmaking month.  I have a super fun idea for making the stamps and Im looking forward to it.
