Kevin Cole, Georgia artist, inspired Paper Sculptures












First graders were introduced to Georgia artist, Kevin Cole and his art work, inspired by ties. My first graders were so excited about the ties, that I had enough donated so that each student could "WEAR" a tie in the art room while they were creating their "tie" like paper sculptures! The paper sculptures are amazing and hanging all over our building!

First Grade Kandinsky Inspirations


The first graders have just completed their Kandinsky inspired paintings.
Students listened to jazz music taking note of fast/slow tempo to paint their lines. The following week, student reviewed color mixing and mixed primary colors to create secondary
colors within their paintings. Many of these
wonderful paintings are already hanging on the walls in our school.
