5th Grade Artists are discussing and learing about contemporary artist, Romero Britto!  We are inspired by his use of AB patterns, outlines, and correct Facial Proportions to draw a self portrait!

 

To draw our self portrait, we are using correct facil proportions!, and observational drawing by looking at what makes us UNIQUE in a mirror! :)

5th Grade Students are discussing, learning about and inspired by Artist, Gerhard Richter!

 

Students Discussed what they SEE Think and Wonder in the Artwork above, before observing the Artist's Process.  This artist is more focused on the PROCESS of his work than the PRODUCT! 

 

We will first choose TWO Large images that inspire and represent us for our REALISTIC background, then use a squeegee like contemporary artist, Gerhard Richter does to add a color scheme in an abstract way on top!

 

We will focus on color, composition, and most importantly process! Students will choose color schemes between colors that create UNITY within the work meaning they are the same, or which create CONTRAST meaning they are very different!
