Fourth Graders will be visiting the High Museum on Friday

I am preparing my fourth graders this week on museum manners and etiquette while attending the Atlanta High Museum of Art!  Students will be going to see the "Go West" exhibition that is currently on display until April 13, 2014.  They are so excited and for many this is their for FIRST time to visit an art museum!

Fourth Grade Printmakers

Fourth Graders learned the technique of creating multiple prints. They were inspired by Andy Warhol's use of repetition. Each student created 4 editions of their self-portrait and used complementary color schemes to enhance their artwork.

Fourth Grade has just completed their monochromatic Picasso inspired still life! A monochromatic color scheme means only using one color along with the values of that color only. Fourth graders used watercolors to paint their still life, using more water to create a lighter value and less water to create a darker value. Many of these beautiful pieces of art are displayed within our school lobby. We hope you get a chance to take a look!
