April 7

Welcome Back Artists! I hope you all had many creative days while on Spring Break. Now it's time to get back to work, as there is still lots to do before our art show in a few months.

Today we started the first part of our "Paint Nite" paintings, and we will finish them up next class. Our goal today was to complete the ombre background of our paintings and then to decide the composition and animal before next week.





We started by picking 2 colours (1 dark and 1 light) and then with a wet brush and long smooth strokes to blend them into the desired ombre look. Here are how some of them turned out.





I can't wait to see them finished.

Sketchbook homework this week was "What's in your bag?" Here are this week's winners:

Team Hook


A School Backpack

Team Rumplestiltskin


A Softball Bag

Team Regina


A Very Full School Backpack

Next week's sketchbook assignment is to draw your favourite movie scene as a 6 year old child. My inspiration for this assignment came from the board game Scene it! They have a group of movies drawn in "child's play" style that are displayed on a giant fridge. If you need inspiration maybe play the game with your family this weekend!! It's our family favourite. See you all next week!
