Flower Gardens and Stick Boxes

4/28/2023

0 Comments

 
Second grade art students have recently been drawing "Color Wheel Flower Gardens".  In this exercise, the dominant flower in the composition has petals that show a 6-part color wheel. The petals have the three traditional primary colors for painters (red, yellow, and blue) and the secondary colors (orange, green, and purple).  The secondary colors appear between the primaries used to make them.  Brown appears in the central circle of the color wheel flowers because various types of brown can be obtained by mixing the three primaries in different proportions.  Black is in the very center of the color wheel flowers because it can be obtained by mixing the 3 primaries in proportions of equal strength. Students used pencils, colored pencils, permanent markers, and their imaginations to develop these artworks.  

Kindergarten art students have made colorful popsicle stick boxes.  To make their boxes, kindergarteners glued and stacked alternating pairs of colored popsicle sticks. The floor of each box is a flat grouping of sticks that are glued to one end of the stack.  Also,  Mrs. Baker, the KB assistant teacher, enjoyed making her own box along with the students.  She appears in the KB class photo.

Doghouses and Atoms

4/20/2023

0 Comments

 
Third grade art students recently created virtual models of dogs, as well as doghouses and pens, with Sketch Up for Schools computer-aided design (CAD) software on Chromebooks.  By using this geometry-based digital tool, students learned that lines can be used to form planes and that planes can become components of complex structures.

Eighth grade art tech students have been constructing virtual 3D Bohr models of atoms with the Tinkercad computer-aided design app.  These atom models, which students have used in videos, are of elements they are researching in science class. This joint effort of the middle school Art Tech and Science classes allows students to creatively combine the disciplines of art, science, math, and engineering.

Stations of the Cross

4/12/2023

0 Comments

 
This video is a look at the Stations of the Cross at our school during Holy Week. Fr. Jim Magee led our students and faculty in the Stations, with special artwork created by 8th grade students.
8th graders drew the Stations of the Cross in art tech class. Students drew grids with 1/2-inch squares on small prints of illustrations by contemporary artist Shari Van Vranken. They made proportionate grids with 1-inch squares on their drawing papers in order to scale up the images they are observing. Math concepts are reinforced as students must remain focused on corresponding positions on 2 graphs as they draw the contents of each grid block. When finished with their drawings, students developed their images further with Sketchbook graphic design software on their iPads.
