Live and Create!


In art as in life, there is no need to reinvent the wheel or
fix what is not broken. Sharing what is working in my art teaching world and
hoping to hear and learn from you is the reason for my blog! I currently have some
amazing young artists so take a look at some of our recent work! Please feel free to comment and add
suggestions! I would be remiss in not thanking all the fellow artists and
teachers out there who I have previously explored and learned from. Your myriad
ideas and projects have served as an inspiration to me and my students!
Be inspired!

Each year our students create Christmas ornaments as art projects that deck the halls of the fine arts building, hanging on the Christmas trees from Thanksgiving to the middle of December. This year I found a resource for mini canvases and easels that we decided to use to paint mini masterpieces. Though the project was time consuming and required hard work on the part of the students, the results were amazing. My 3rd graders were inspired by Picasso's Three Musicsians, 4th graders mimiked Matisse's Goldfish and 5th graders had the choice of Van gogh's Starry Night, Cypress by the Road and the Chair. We have recieved many positive comments from parents and teachers alike!
