We can't believe it is the end of our second week already! We had some fun with our friends today and made a Statue of Liberty in celebration of our Nation's Birthday tomorrow. To add a twist to our project we used poms and clothes pins as a paint brush for our Statues of Liberty, as well as a stencil Mrs. Burns made us. We worked on fine motor control while holding our poms and clothes pins. We practiced making our paint jump lightly on the page to get a fun sponge painted look. We also talked about what happens when you mix red and blue! This project's end result gave us three pictures each! One of the stencil, around the stencil, and in the inside cut out of the Statue of Liberty. We had a lot of fun with this project! Here is an example of our work before we separated the stencil from the paper. Here is one aspect of our project - after the stencil was removed.

Artist Bio: Gertrude Kasebier was born in Des Moines, Iowa, on May 18, 1852. Guided by Alfred Stieglitz into the “Photo Secession” movement, she has made her mark on photography with a keen eye for the feminine and domestic in pictorial photography. In 1864 Gertrude’s family relocated to Brooklyn, New York. She was married in 1874. From 1889-1896 she was a homemaker, after which she studied painting at the Pratt Institute. Soon she shifted to photography and was quickly recognized for her unique imagery. He had her first solo exhibition in 1896 at the Boston Camera Club. She then opened her own studio in New York City a year later. She appeared in numerous magazines, was featured in the first issue of Camera Work, and had a number of show on the East coast. Kasebier was as interested in promoting photography to a fine art as Stieglitz was. She became one of the founding members of the “Photo Secession” movement in 1906, along with Edward Stiechen and Clarence H. White. In 1916, she openly broke with Stieglitz due to his shifting ideals of photographic practice and co-founded the Pictorial Professional Photographers of America organization with Clarence H. White. He also co-founded the Women’s Federation of the Photographer’s Association of America. She closed her photo studio sometime in 1927 and was featured in a retrospective at the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences in 1929. She died five years later, still residing in New York City. Image Information: Gertrude Kasebier took up photography after her children were gone. Children, women, and domestic family life were the themes she dealt with great exclusivity. This image of a woman silhouetted by a window with lovely dappled lighting, exemplifies the pictorialist photographer's ideal. Signature techniques of the photo secessionists are used in this photograph, Soft light, strong diagonals, and softer focus than the "straight photographs" that would become popular in the coming decades.

Winged Victory, Nike of Samothrace, 190 BC.A highly detailed exact miniature of the large marble statue from antiquity, which is housed in the Musee du Louvre, Paris.The marble statue represents the goddess as she descends from the skies to the triumphant Armies. Sculptured arts have been commissioned to re-create this beautiful marble Nike, exact to the full sized original.Every mark, and every chip from centuries of wear and war, has been duplicated throughout, including the restoration done over the years, including the frame on the statue’s outstretched right wing, which is a symmetric plaster version of the original left one, as it was missing along with the head and arms when unearthed in 1863.Before she lost her arms, which have never been recovered, Nike's right arm is believed to have been raised, her hand cupped round her mouth to deliver the shout of Victory.Despite its significant damage and incompleteness, the marble Victory statue is held to be one of the great surviving masterpieces of sculpture from the Hellenistic Period, and from the entire Greco-Roman era. The statue shows a mastery of form and movement which has impressed critics and artists since its discovery. It is considered one of the Louvre's greatest treasures, and since the late 19th century it has been displayed in the most dramatic fashion, at the head of the sweeping Daru staircase, within the museum.The work is notable for its convincing rendering of a pose where violent motion and sudden stillness meet, for its graceful balance and for the rendering of the figure's draped garments, compellingly depicted as if rippling in a strong sea breeze.
