The sixth graders created these close up christmas trees to show that they can create an artwork with space, texture, and analogous colors. First we used wet on wet watercolor painting to create our ornaments with analogous colors. Then we created tree branches for our background with oil pastels and color sticks to show texture. The last step was cutting and gluing on our ornaments in different areas to show space in our artwork.

The sixth graders created these fantastic ceramic birds after studying John James Audubon and his nature drawings. Our goals were to show form, texture, and color when creating our birds.
The first through sixth grade students have been creating sketchbooks to use throughout the school year in art class. In these sketchbooks, we will write and draw small things to help us remember what we are learning about such as art vocabulary words or information about various artists or types of art. At the end of the year, students will get to take home their sketchbooks and reflect on the year we had in art.

Mrs. W.About Me: This is my eighth year teaching art at Switzer Elementary. I see every K-6 student for art once a week. My goal during this time is to nurture students' creativity through exploring different art mediums and concepts. By exploring art, students will develop essential knowledge and skills that will prepare them for the future. Categories
