"Louise Nevelson Wood Assemblages." This was a fun after school workshop. I had all my students create an abstract Nevelson piece that we painted red. After they created their Nevelson, they went crazy creating all kinds of other cool wood sculptures.
The ladies in the office asked if I could put something together for the front entrance/office at school. I hung three separate pieces of Plexiglas and painted a chestnut tree onto the glass. It's still not finished. More pics to come of this one....
Third Grade-Oil Pastel flower still life
First Grade-Charcoal drawings of dogs!! Our wonderful Librarian/creative writing teacher had the author of "Rembrandt and boy who drew dogs." come and speak to our students. So I had the younger grades work on these drawings while looking at some of Rembrandt's work.
Fourth Grade-The first set of prints were study prints of Wayne Thiebaud's work. Next, I had the students make prints of something that represents them as a person.
The Sushi print is one of my favorites.
Second Grade- Watercolor boats
Thursday After School Workshop-There were about ten students who created a one of a kind flower garden in our little cubbie whole in the stairwell. These students really brightened up our stairwell!
Fifth/Sixth Grade Ice Cream Cones-2nd Trimester.
Third Grade: Clay Australian Boomerangs
I put a whole bin of extra wood at the art center for students to work with when they are done with their project. The boys took to pulling in chairs to hold up their roadways.
Fifth/Sixth Grade scratch art-Tropical scenes. We spent one period coloring our paper with solid color. I covered each piece with black paint and students began their masterpieces the next art period.

I LOVE childrens art! Thanks for this gorgeous and inspiring post!
I also wanted to thank you for sharing the children's art work. I have a 3rd, 4th, and 5th grader and two of which are aspiring artist. I love art through the eyes of a child. Thanks!
