It was great to see some of you at the Homecoming Window Painting festivities after school today. Of course, this activity and float building are dear to this art teacher's heart. It is great to see the students using their creative abilities OUTSIDE of the classroom as well. In the classroom today, Adeeb and Kelly finished their close ups of the skeleton. Adeeb thought his looked celestial so he leaned toward an outer space theme. Kelly used bright pink and yellow green oil pastels to highlight her drawing. Haley finished the day before yesterday and was one of very few who opted to not use the circle. She completed a full sheet, enlarged view and beautifully colored the negative space with greens and oranges. The quiz went well. I offered one extra credit point for a fill-in-the-blank question. I wanted to see if the students could remember a word from the first quiz. Many of them did!
abstraction - simplification and/or alteration of forms, derived from actual observation or experience to present the essence of the objects, people or places.
