Venetian Masks
Students were taken on a trip to Venice, Italy. We looked at a map of Italy and many photos of people dressed in costume for il Carnevale. We listened to artisans talking about how the make the masks and describing the variety of masks available for sale. My students practiced their designs on paper first, and then were free to paint and add feathers or sequins for added flair.
Pop Art Motif
Students in art club learned about the Pop Art style. We looked at work by Roy Lichtenstein which recreated machine-like dots of color like comic books. We also talked about Andy Warhol and his screen prints that repeated images over and over again. We printed bubble wrap for our background and selected an object to print as our repeated motif.
Aboriginal Dot Painting
Students learned about Aboriginal art. We watched artists from Australia do large dot paintings and discussed the hidden meanings behind the symbols found in the art.
