Textile Collage Houses

Kindergarteners Collage houses. Students used a variety of materials to create their house. We incorporated fashion and textiles to inspire students with their design. They enjoyed this lesson just as much a I enjoyed watching them create! 🏡🤩

Let’s go to the Jackson Pollock Art Gallery 🎨

Grade 3 learned how to create an Abstract action painting inspired by Jackson Pollock. They learned how to critique their artwork as an artist and a viewer. This was part of their Aesthetics PYP UOI Unit. They are ready to go on their field trip now to view artworks of the Expressionist movement 🖼️🤩

Hundertwasser Grade 1

Students learned about Austrian Artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser. They used his harmonious landscapes as inspiration to create their own paintings. Mixed media used were: oil pastels, watercolors, and colored construction paper. Students were encouraged to use swirl lines, and bright colors to represent Hundertwasser eccentric personality. They nailed it 🎯 ❤️🎨

Beach 🏖 Penguins 🐧

Students learned foreground, middle ground and background in this Multi-media project. They began with a guided drawing activity of their penguins. Students then collaged their beach backgrounds with colored construction paper and drew their beach details in their “sandscape”. Last students cut out and glued their penguins🐧 to the foreground.

Africa 🦒🐘🐆🦛🐅❤️🌍

Grade 4 learned all about Africa from the textiles in their traditional Kente Cloth clothing to the infamous African Safari animals.

Students learned what each color represents in the Kente Cloth and selected the colors that best represent them. They learned how to weave and how to use patterns, shapes, and lines to design their Textiles.

Lastly they incorporated yarn into their weavings. We had so much fun learning about this beautiful continent.

🌈ROYGBIV 🌈

After learning about ROYGBIV singing and dancing around the art room my tiny artist created these wonderful multimedia rainbows 🌈

Amazing Art Teacher ~Takashi Murakami 🌼🎨

I am literally obsessed with Takashi Murakami’s Art. I was blessed to have the opportunity to visit his Art exhibition in Hong Kong 🇭🇰 My students have also become slightly obsessed thanks to me. 🤫😬 Every time they see his artwork they can’t wait to come to me with pictures or to share their Murakami sightings 😍
