ART INFOHERE'S WHAT'S HAPPENING IN ART
We began the year in Art "In Celebration of Trees"
4th -7th grades created gesture drawing of trees and then did a watercolor wash to finish the artwork. Please visit the art room to see some of the trees on exhibit. I am in the process right now of putting all of these on the artsonia website. Please visit Artsonia to take a look at your child's tree or to see all the classes.Down further on this site you will see the artsonia link.
1st-3rd grades did Thoreau Inspired Lakes. 3rd grade pictures are now on the Artsonia website.
PreK and Kindergarten students are doing scribble trees.
Sept. 14-18
We started the magnet pictures in most classes this week and will be working on these for three weeks.
They are already so wonderful and their ideas are so unique!
1st-8th grade come up with their own ideas for their pictures.
Kindergarten classes do the (drawing together fish ). I was totally amazed at their superb drawings.
Pre-K are drawing ladybugs.
Please feel free to visit our Art room to see artwork in progress.
I have added another feature on the art website which is a Calendar for Art helpers. The volunteer names start on the October calendar. Just click on the individual month to view! Please use this to check when you have signed up to help in the art room. Art class times are listed on the Art Schedule below.
Original Works Magnet Project
Dear Family:
This is to let you know that STM is participating in this special program which allows you to have your child's very own artwork reproduced onto a selection of over 20 quality products. these products range from magnets, mugs, and mouse pads to t-shirts, tote bags and tiles.
Your child is creating their artwork in school, using the regular art curriculum as the basis for their work. You will then have the opportunity to order your child's own art work featured on each and every product.
We are thrilled to be participating in this unique and innovative program again this year. We have participated in it for the past 16 years at STM. Look for complete program, product, and pricing information coming with the magnet the first week of November.
