I just couldn't wait to post about our Jackson Pollock guitars! The first day, third graders learned about Jackson Pollock. We read Action Jackson, and got a feel for how Pollock lived and worked. We learned that Pollock dripped and drizzled house paint all over huge canvases in his studio. Next, we did our own abstract expressionist string paintings. We used clothespins to hold the strings this year and it was SO much better than fingers! After that, we did something that Pollock would have hated! We turned our awesome paintings into guitars! Students were given a photo reference sheet that had pictures of different guitars. Everyone was encouraged to create their own designs! This project was a blast for everyone! Learning Goals: I can... - Tell about Jackson Pollock - Use creativity to make my guitar unique - Explain that a graphic designer might help create the look of a guitar!

Starting off, I always loved music and guitars fascinated me the most. The sounds they make and the variety of designs always caught my eye. So, I decided one day I would learn to draw them. At first, it was a bit challenging, but with practice, I got better. I started with simple shapes and lines to capture the essence of a guitar, focusing on the body, strings, and neck. It was fun to experiment with different styles and eventually add more details. As I progressed, I discovered various easy guitar drawing ideas that helped me a lot. I learned

Building an acoustic guitar is a very satisfying project that is within reach of most people with a modicum of woodworking experience. I have speed-built a guitar within a week, but for a more considered approach it is more usual to take three to four weeks.
While an experienced instructor can help tremendously, it is possible to teach yourself to play bass guitar. Take some time to get used to the instrument, even if you already know how to play guitar. Have patience, and recognize that...
This unit could definitely be done with younger grades, but I went more in depth with abstraction and creating mood in an artwork with 5th graders. I did it with this age because of the time I had with them (five classes) and they had just done something observational, so I wanted them to do something more hands-on. The artist example was Picasso (obviously) and on the first day, before any instruction, the students filled out a see, think, wonder worksheet about this artwork. They filled it out again on the last day for my evidence of student learning. On the first day, we talked about how color can be used to show mood and feelings in a work of art. I had the students pick a mood word from the bucket, which they had to paint non-objectively. Later, the students had to guess the mood that was painted. (From top left to bottom right: anxious, playful, mellow, jealous, angry, and gloomy). On the second day, the students learned about different ways to abstract an object. They made a few practice sketches (student example above). Then we talked about all the parts on a guitar (using my examples and my ukulele to help them visualize how I abstracted the different parts). Then, they made a larger sketch of what they wanted their final piece to look like (student example below). Lastly, they transferred their guitar's outline onto their final, large paper. On the third day, we talked about tints and shades. The students painted their guitar shape with either a tint or a shade of blue after practicing making a gradient. On the last two days we talked about monochromatic and mixed media artwork. Then they cut paper and news paper to create their guitar parts, adding their strings last. Then they filled out a self assessment and an artist statement about their guitar. Some student examples are pictured below.
