I gave each table a pile of colorful tissue paper shapes and glue water to build their city. We talked about which city we lived near and how the buildings looked in Atlanta. After the kids built their city they painted the background with dot paint. I loved how these turned out, I think they are amazing!ArtClass@themainstreetacademyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00664636520249649434noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615239847612220432.post-87818226370618627492012-01-04T16:18:00.000-08:002012-01-04T16:18:52.821-08:00Edible Colorwheel<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDBmxCoi6qz9DT3VXof5SGnSx5Xwgd0kzBBk3ITWHUKdJbK3RaZalPgv1tt3J-cgzFdz11GI7ZnSkF3iKsMyyGJmE92NMuGmFaqzvzEayxls7WypfshYmeH4mvOYwmfJC_EkbHvkUhodLY/s1600/IMG_0991.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDBmxCoi6qz9DT3VXof5SGnSx5Xwgd0kzBBk3ITWHUKdJbK3RaZalPgv1tt3J-cgzFdz11GI7ZnSkF3iKsMyyGJmE92NMuGmFaqzvzEayxls7WypfshYmeH4mvOYwmfJC_EkbHvkUhodLY/s320/IMG_0991.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br />

My 5th grade really loved mixing the frosting before devouring the entire project. I gave each student 2 plates, one for the 6 cookies and one for the frosting mixing plate. I only gave them the primary colors and asked them to mix the secondary colors. I wish there was more time and money to really mix all the colors, but the joy of the assignment was well understood....this will definitely be on the agenda for next year!ArtClass@themainstreetacademyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00664636520249649434noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615239847612220432.post-63117421135599679732011-11-02T17:20:00.000-07:002011-11-02T17:24:15.093-07:00Swatch it!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1F5rdBrO1508VxYhLsJgOMyjf99QxlPwdkHsOGUFzhyRPaI6y12w3ILFXA9v6D0Fap7b_6uNTDGCKDJkb7W1YAkVwcAH6aAo0r6Dy0JnF4-HNGeUcjw_sgc7gkiIamVIADxO1zBBuJTpm/s1600/IMG_0683.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1F5rdBrO1508VxYhLsJgOMyjf99QxlPwdkHsOGUFzhyRPaI6y12w3ILFXA9v6D0Fap7b_6uNTDGCKDJkb7W1YAkVwcAH6aAo0r6Dy0JnF4-HNGeUcjw_sgc7gkiIamVIADxO1zBBuJTpm/s320/IMG_0683.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br />

These portraits were inspired by Howard Finster and his unique style. Thanks to Ms. Krass at The Lake Forest Louvre and her inspiring ideas, my students at TMSA had a great time creating personal sentences and painting self portraits. I wish you could read all the great descriptions the kids wrote about themselves. One of my favorites was "I am very strong and brave."<br />
Enjoy <br />

I am thinking of a huge colorwheel on the wall and grouping some art elements and principal posters together ...the bad news is that I have to travel between to campuses and sadly I dont have a classroom at one campus...well that actually remains to be up in the air at this time, but its not looking good.<br />
So the first few days have been a whirlwind but look for updates on my new ideas for the classroom and soon to be art cart.ArtClass@themainstreetacademyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00664636520249649434noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615239847612220432.post-91430019012922720222011-06-10T05:07:00.000-07:002011-06-10T05:07:48.165-07:00First Annual TMSA art night<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxjX6yhT_BOavwEvApjBtdF_1GJ1D_3vhOwIFxe271lGVdg49f9sEcbT-zUtommk580pUhpZc6pm0_a82kR734_ZBxD5UkDy5zvs79lzbMBrq8OOTLsAXWv5icn6ebD2ANTcr4VxOuTg_a/s1600/240335_2095331308708_1408098724_2477127_146790_o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2pc1_OYRjVaDu2-u5tNSf8PffsLrclhy6Lic6xJGRykn-uyO7CRXBnsZry-0oBL1z9owNGj6XOYcdccXISA627YHTjoqL3fremAQr7dWT4L7EWrVatNBDFqzwplUsTElpNwIZgbtZlNqU/s1600/242591_2095329628666_1408098724_2477122_4132730_o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2pc1_OYRjVaDu2-u5tNSf8PffsLrclhy6Lic6xJGRykn-uyO7CRXBnsZry-0oBL1z9owNGj6XOYcdccXISA627YHTjoqL3fremAQr7dWT4L7EWrVatNBDFqzwplUsTElpNwIZgbtZlNqU/s320/242591_2095329628666_1408098724_2477122_4132730_o.jpg" width="212" /></a></div> The Main Street Academy first annual Art Night<br />

My dear friend Kristin was a rock star with set up and keeping me focused. All this came together in less than 6 hours, calling in extra volunteers at the last minute and everything was set and ready at 5. <br />
The families started flowing in and were overjoyed by the gallery feel of the event. I had over 600 pieces of art, a beautiful spread of fruit, cheese and deserts donated by our PTO and another close friend, 26 painted wooden chairs for auction (which brought over 2,000 dollars) and music performed by our 6th grade students.<br />
I could have asked for a better night. The artwork was stunning and looking at these pictures now, taking it all in, I am proud to say that TMSA has the most talented kids ever!! I knew all school year that they were working hard and carefully followed my directions, but when I sit here in the silence of my living room, reflecting on a school year, I am so proud, so happy to be a part of this school and these kids.ArtClass@themainstreetacademyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00664636520249649434noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615239847612220432.post-27358318019267426152011-05-09T18:45:00.000-07:002011-05-09T18:45:53.867-07:00Wooden Chairs painted for our Silent Auction<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0MPfGQpnibhCUbuwWIgPyt071fNl3_cNO-MRU9bcmsYLEt-sfVxG-tZUfYGn87cpQMlqMY23zSE7YEtVbV5LHybVuv8XTzWED8Rt4FqXTplqmd7ESHU1_RVs9gqtvv1KkLEKtLPgywTd8/s1600/DSC02390.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0MPfGQpnibhCUbuwWIgPyt071fNl3_cNO-MRU9bcmsYLEt-sfVxG-tZUfYGn87cpQMlqMY23zSE7YEtVbV5LHybVuv8XTzWED8Rt4FqXTplqmd7ESHU1_RVs9gqtvv1KkLEKtLPgywTd8/s320/DSC02390.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

First I give every student a 3/4 paper plate and they chose a color of paint. I asked they cover the plate and then sat it aside to dry. Next step was curing the 8 legs with pencils. All the kids LOVED it. All was left was to cut eyes and a mouth and wham.....These are so fun and an easy one day project.ArtClass@themainstreetacademyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00664636520249649434noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615239847612220432.post-53676253950078825032011-04-18T17:18:00.000-07:002011-04-18T17:18:23.324-07:00Gustav Klimt Tree of Life<img alt="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8qjyL8It9HLlv1HxmbiOsQrTtCuKTZzTdQBpLkcEZsx3enWH7nT4w4b9B5Eikh2S2QAqmXu0CrhkeOCpkb9zFO3MI6h_TZ_ccE7XStCfcksGOKuTjoQtj5e43aV78lyNOP6Jbl7p_c9YY/s1600/gustav-klimt-the-tree-of-life-stoclet-frieze-c-1909-detail.jpg" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8qjyL8It9HLlv1HxmbiOsQrTtCuKTZzTdQBpLkcEZsx3enWH7nT4w4b9B5Eikh2S2QAqmXu0CrhkeOCpkb9zFO3MI6h_TZ_ccE7XStCfcksGOKuTjoQtj5e43aV78lyNOP6Jbl7p_c9YY/s1600/gustav-klimt-the-tree-of-life-stoclet-frieze-c-1909-detail.jpg" /><br />

Then we added swirls for each branch. I first wanted the kids to paint with just one color on the background, but found they had better ideas..they used watercolors to fill in the background and finished the tress adding gems and sparkles...this was a huge success and everyone has raved how beautiful they turned out.ArtClass@themainstreetacademyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00664636520249649434noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615239847612220432.post-43628135945836140822011-04-02T14:12:00.000-07:002011-04-18T17:43:45.311-07:00A Puzzling Still Life<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicmHnbzs5gvQDJVNDc5qWxwpH2uk0OTi-WzUjKwEVvO3MI9KZr8BYMlL44sMkcLRrhgZZoTHYQ0djsSCtl4Bm_d2QRWdsFFTkPI3MEAUlLaA3a2IwQeDFORsGWzODr1xRMRhAyblhKom30/s1600/DSC02310.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicmHnbzs5gvQDJVNDc5qWxwpH2uk0OTi-WzUjKwEVvO3MI9KZr8BYMlL44sMkcLRrhgZZoTHYQ0djsSCtl4Bm_d2QRWdsFFTkPI3MEAUlLaA3a2IwQeDFORsGWzODr1xRMRhAyblhKom30/s320/DSC02310.JPG" width="215" /></a></div><br />

We looked at various artwork that was either a still life or not and compared the artwork. Next I gave each table a vase, some flowers (fake), and a variety of fruits and veggies (from m kids play kitchen). I had the kids arrange a still life on their table a could of times to make sure everyone got a turn. After the last turn was had we drew the still life on the table with pencil. After the drawings were done we traced with a sharpie (of course). On the next class time we painted the still life. On the last day I cut their paper on the 2 inch and then 4 inch (10 inch x16inch paper). I let the kids pick a piece of colored construction paper and told them to figure out the puzzle before any gluing....when they were done I made sure they didn't forget the spacing between the pieces to give the window effect. This was really challenging for some but I found that all really loved the effort and were very patient for me to help. They look so wonderful hanging in the room.</div>ArtClass@themainstreetacademyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00664636520249649434noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615239847612220432.post-22515299587156534822011-04-01T19:12:00.000-07:002011-04-01T19:12:56.252-07:00Rare Trophy Fish<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCGz6h1xo8cZRJClIg5kHpfX_yf0pR3ThbDdEqGb__m4zfU1VxJ7OmR6LrWtFUADJypVVul0LK-f34X1xSe96dsujOwbjUVcx7qQzZ5TsZxVnKTxXTjJMYcXba5WWhVvShC3OF0ktRdbSP/s1600/DSC02306.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCGz6h1xo8cZRJClIg5kHpfX_yf0pR3ThbDdEqGb__m4zfU1VxJ7OmR6LrWtFUADJypVVul0LK-f34X1xSe96dsujOwbjUVcx7qQzZ5TsZxVnKTxXTjJMYcXba5WWhVvShC3OF0ktRdbSP/s320/DSC02306.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

They worked very hard creating a large fish with lots of color and design. Next they cut out their fish and trace it onto a separate paper. After gluing the edges only we waited for them to dry. The next step was to stuff the fish full of newspaper to create the 3-D effect. Last step was to try and draw a wood like design on cardboard to finish the trophy look. The kids loved these fish and were very proud of their accomplishments.ArtClass@themainstreetacademyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00664636520249649434noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615239847612220432.post-63264909438774411862011-03-31T03:43:00.000-07:002011-03-31T03:43:42.025-07:00Art Classroom<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1D6cy2K-X5PTbRVUYz2sFTqGcTQkWFTCLck3zhlaxOWKuHGXvLBybVZU7FNqFjLV8IVUr2Onm-8BaQDHfo7ia3j4wXU6KEW9aYHX3ooGS_26gELsfDKxZXhRhAUt94HqrreMeeAz6Hn6x/s1600/DSC02302.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1D6cy2K-X5PTbRVUYz2sFTqGcTQkWFTCLck3zhlaxOWKuHGXvLBybVZU7FNqFjLV8IVUr2Onm-8BaQDHfo7ia3j4wXU6KEW9aYHX3ooGS_26gELsfDKxZXhRhAUt94HqrreMeeAz6Hn6x/s320/DSC02302.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

I have been a potter now for about 15 years, but now teaching full time and keeping up with my 2 creative kids, leaves little time to be creative myself. I think that people just expect an art teacher to be creating at all times, well that is true of me 99% of the time. I make cards, journals, paint (murals and pictures). I often let my own kids find the glue and beads to assemble various artwork, but to actually have time to throw pottery...well...I have a kiln and a wheel and I love throwing pots, it was my concentration for my BFA. I find myself thinking about the pots I want to make, then I seem to get sidetracked with another project. Well this weekend was a huge success. I sat down Saturday and got 9 mugs and 9 bowls thrown, mostly for gifts I promised. Today I went to my studio to add handles to all my mugs and was drawn back to the wheel for another 9 bowls. Now let me say that this seems all perfect and Zen like, but I did have a 2 year old playing in paint and clay the entire time I was throwing. I didn't mind her company, in fact I loved that she will know clay at an early age. So with all that said...I had a very successful day being an artist, not just an art teacher who wishes to make more art.ArtClass@themainstreetacademyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00664636520249649434noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615239847612220432.post-25038999262485690332011-03-26T18:21:00.000-07:002011-03-26T18:21:42.133-07:00Trying it out...I really want to be a part of the art teacher blogging community...so here is my very small attempt to create a blog for my creative students. crafty kids and myself, a sharpie lovin, clay throwin, artist wanna be...here's to the perfect mess of a blog.ArtClass@themainstreetacademyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00664636520249649434noreply@blogger.com1
