Lichtenstein Inspired Zentangle Fruit Bowl

Lichtenstein Inspired Zentangle Fruit Bowls

4th Grade 

4th Grade loved this project. It was challenging!  

Students looked at the Pop Artist Roy Lichtenstein's Still Life With Crystal Bowl, 1973. Class discussed what elements of Art Lichtenstein used to create his work.  They talked about Pop Art characteristics and what a Still Life is. 

 

Students worked large scale on 19 x 24 Multimedia paper.  All were encouraged to draw big and fill most of the space. 

I usually tell my students, "If you draw the first part of the image, line, shape, big then you are forced to draw big." 

Once students had their Still Life composition, they outlined it in sharpie. Then they had the option of using washable markers as watercolor or color their work solid. To finish their work, they focused on creating Zentangle patterns in the background.

I loved how they turned out. They sure did an amazing job!

Britto's Statue Liberty

It is almost Veterans Day, and 3rd Grade has been learning about the Pop artist Romero Britto. 

Students began their lesson about the significance of Verterans Day. Students shared stories about Veterans in their family and in the community.

Next Studens look at Pop Artist Romero Britto's Statue of Liberty. 

Students analyzed Britto's painting characteristics.

Then they created their own Britto Inspired Statue of Liberty.

I think they did an amazing job on their paintings. 

Each one is unique and fun just like my students!

 I can not wait to hang these beautiful paintings for the Verterans Day Recital.

 I think they will make a beautiful display to show respect to our Veterans. 

3rd Grade did such a beautiful job on their
