Line Drawings in Grade 4

Inspired by the textural drawings of Vincent van Gogh, students in fourth grade drew landscapes using different kinds of lines.

Kindergarten's first artwork of the year

Students in Kindergarten created colorful mouse pictures inspired by Laura Numeroff's If you Give a Mouse a Cookie. First students drew their mouse, then they added oil pastel and watercolor paint to make it bright.

I am so proud of Kindergarten's first artistic efforts of the year!

Welcome Back

I hope that everyone had a wonderful summer.

We have started the year in art at a fast pace. Already we have talked about several different artists and techniques. We have even begun experimenting with oil pastels and paints in several grade levels.

In the comming weeks we will begin to finish some of our artwork, so check back here, Sunderland Art Spot, for some pictures of great SES student work.
