Looking forward to another FANTASTIC year in the art room!




Each year, we try to start off the school year with a collaborative mural that focuses on a positive theme  or goal for us all. The art lesson is merely a review of the art elements to get our memories flowing and our creative juices pumping. This year, we will be tracing our arms and hands and putting them on a mural in a way that shows each of us "reaching for the stars!" The designs in each hand will be a review of pattern, line, shape, color, form, texture, space and value.
