Tin Foil Line Relief


7th graders have been working on a low relief sculptural project using tin foil, yarn and cardboard. We stressed the idea of varied line and spent a day discovering color schemes such as monochromatic, analogous, complementary and triadic and how limited color can affect our artwork. Colored Sharpies were used to fill in the foil areas between the yarn sections, while sandpaper and Rub n' Buff were used to slightly age our projects. 

The results are something between stain glass and closinae. Art on a budget!

Amate Bark Painting


It doesn't get much more vibrant than fluoresant paint on kraft paper! 

After practicing some bird and "tree of life" sketches, we finialized a design on our crumbled-then-ironed paper. We also worked on Ombré paint effects and finished with some 3D paint for added detail.
