7th grade students finished their Zentangle Portraits earlier this week that were inspired by the 1960s. It was fun to see how they used text, pattern, line, color and shape to complete their works before posting it to our online gallery.

8th grade students are working on Monsters this week, inspired by Takashi Murakami. It will be fun to see these sewn creatures come to life as students finish their works tomorrow and Thursday. Students are also felting details onto their works using the Donors Choose materials we received earlier in the school year.

8th grade students worked on Monsters last week, inspired by Japanese contemporary artist, Takashi Murakami. This year was especially fun because we got to use a new technique of felting wool on for extra details due to a Donors Choose project being funded! Here is a video from last year, explaining the process:

7th grade students worked on Collages last week using their previous portrait and cut up magazines. It was fun to see the creative solutions students came up with to create a face out of many other faces. you can see the full gallery on Artsonia or watch the video below.

I am super excited to announce that we have gotten our third project fully funded through DonorsChoose.org! Due to the generous support of donors from Michigan and beyond, 8th grade students will be learning to sew some awesome Monsters soon!

This sewing project was first taught last year as a result of a session I went to at the Michigan Art Education Association Conference last year. I saw the project and knew my students would do an awesome job with it (and of course they did, check out last year's project here). This year we can make them even more AMAZING with the funding provided from generous supporters of the arts! Thank you so much for your support and I cannot wait to get started with this project!

8th grade students are finishing up their monsters today and tomorrow before submitting them onto Moodle. They have used all kinds of embellishments to create these creatures that represent some aspect of their own personality. If you were a monster, what might you look like?
