How would you describe them? Vincent VanGogh Claude Monet Landscape artists are still inspired by the Impressionists today. Look at the Modern Impressionist artist, Heather Brown HEATHER BROWN ART Kimberley Thompson Paintings KIMBERLEY THOMPSON ART ERIN HANSON I keep a visual list of inspirational landscapes here... LANDSCAPE IDEAS ------------HOW TO CREATE THE IMPRESSION OF ----------- IMPRESSIONISM The idea is creating sections of different colors in a contour of movement. The colors swirl and bend with the objects in the landscape. Learn about CLAUDE MONET and the IMPRESSIONISTS here... Keep Van Gogh's Starry Night in mind... The lines in the sky swirl, the lines in the tree wave, the lines in the mountains follow each other. Start by creating a simple line landscape with a pencil. Add contour line color to each object with different tints and shades of marker (non-permanent). Eduardo (7th grade) finds multiple landscape ideas and makes mini- sketches before he settles. Continue filling in each object contour line until done (like below). Mikayla and Olivia adding contour lines to the landscape with marker. When you are done with contour line, get a cup of water and a large paintbrush. Cover each area of the drawing with water until it smears and blends together. Let Dry. Miguel is adding water to his lines to smear the colors together. Using a permanent black marker, circle each area where the color changes in the least bit. This will take a lot of patience. Francisco patiently working on areas of color... Before and After the outline... Here are a completed examples.

5th grade clay fish display The kids used construction paper crayons to color their clay, then I painted them with India Ink to create this Batik look! Thanks to Sarah for sharing this technique at our last art meeting! There was art in the gym on these giant boards and 3-D work on tables. There was also art on boards throughout the school. 2 grade penguin display! Got many complements! Love this shot of the kiddos pointing out their work! Clay table Another board with 1st, 5th and 3rd grade work. 1st grade symmetrical butterflies and Moths. 1/2 split texture bunnies. 2/3 split "Swimmy" paintings. 5th grade Aboriginal Art. I love teaching this lesson! Purple cow paintings by 3rd grade! Kandinsky sandpaper prints by 1st and 1/2 split. Warm or cool plaid pets by 1st grade. Clay cupcakes created by the 2/3 split class! These were a hit! Clay dragons made by 3rd grade! They loved the castle! Another penguin picture. Clay bird's nests created by 2nd grade. I did a cave lesson with 2nd and the 2/3 split classes. I decided to turn a storage room off of the gym into a "Keller Cave." The lights were out in there so students had to use a flash light to go in and look at the cave paintings. The music teacher also made a CD with cave like music to play in the cave. It was a HUGE hit! The families loved it! Inside the cave (the flash from the camera makes it look pretty bright in there). We even hung a spider for an extra touch! I had simple art projects for the kids to make. Here I am shrinking their shrink-y-dink necklaces. Kids love watching them shrink right before their eyes! Another board with Monet ponds created by the 2nd graders. >Close up of a 5th grade Mardi Gras mask that was on display.

Abstract Shoe Value Drawing - Middle School MS Art Project. Fun lesson using drawing observational skills to accurately draw a shoe large onto a sheet of paper and practicing value scales with drawing pencils and colored pencils.
Several weeks ago, 2nd grade students used an "Art Sandwich" as a tool to critique and complement another student's collage illustration. They paired up in class and gave each other two complements and a suggestion for improvement. Compliments are the carbs that keep us working and fuel our efforts, and suggestions are the protein that help us grow as artists and citizens and give us energy over the long haul. It was very important for students to understand that saying "I like it" or "I think it's good" is a nice thing to say, but does not help the artist understand what about the art piece is strong, and should be tried again. A special thanks to Ms. Kitty, the art teacher at Ravenswood for inventing and sharing the Art Sandwich with me, and so many other things, while I was student teaching!
My Messy Art Fun Camp is over. I had a wide age range for this class, K-6th. We created Kimmy Cantrell salt dough masks, pinch pot clay creatures, non-objective art collages and glue and chalk pastel creations. But the favorite project for many was the splattered paint dalmations. The children splattered 2 long sheets of construction paper on day 1. Once dry, they cut out a simple body shape, head and ears. Eyes and nose were added and charcoal shadows. They were given free reign in creating their background.

One of the first posts I pinned to my "Painting Inspirations, Tutorials, and Projects" Pinterest board was an abstract watercolor tutorial from Grow Creative. I have been wanting to try Elise's technique for months, and now that I've done it, I don't think I can stop! The results are absolutely beautiful, and their map-like-qualities appeal greatly to the arty cartophile in me! (I am borrowing the term "arty cartophile" from Jill K. Berry and her book Personal Geographies, which I was inspired to pull off the bookshelf after creating these rubber cement resist watercolor paintings.) I followed Elise's technique pretty much exactly, so you can read her blog post for her directions, but I also took photos of each step of the process as I carried it out, so I thought I would share them with you here: First, I used blue painter's tape to secure my 9x12 cold-press watercolor paper to a piece of palette paper on my work space. (I tried low-tack artist's tape first, and too much watercolor paint seeped underneath it. The blue painter's tape left a gorgeous crisp edge.) Next, I dribbled rubber cement over the watercolor paper. There is no planning, just random dripping in all different directions. Then, I spent a little time with my embossing tool, speeding up the drying process for the rubber cement. This is not a task for the impatient! I get into a kind of trance, watching the rubber cement boil, bubble, pop, and dry. Once the rubber cement is dry, the paper is ready for its first application of watercolor paint. For this particular piece, I used Reeves tube watercolors in "Lemon Yellow." In some of my first pieces, I did a watercolor wash across the entire paper. For the example photographed here, I applied this first layer of watercolor in just some portions of the paper, leaving other parts white. The drying process for the watercolor paint is much faster than for the rubber cement! Now technically, you are supposed to apply more rubber cement, but I actually forgot, and put on a different color of watercolor. This time is was Reeves tube paint in basic "orange." I supplemented with another shade of orange from a set of pan watercolors. I used the orange paint to fill in some of those white spaces I left when I applied the Lemon Yellow. After a bit more drying with the heating tool, I applied more random rubber cement. More drying--which meant more time mesmerized by bubbling rubber cement. At this point it was time for my final color--Reeves tube watercolor in "Magenta." Gorgeous! After one final drying session with the embossing tool, I was ready to pull back the painter's tape and enjoy the crisp edge along the perimeter of my watercolor paper. The next step is to use the pads of my fingers to rub away all of the rubber cement that has been resisting various layers of watercolor paint. The rubber cement comes away in balls and crumbs, and leaves behind the wonderful pathways that give the art such a map-like quality. When all the rubber cement has been rubbed away...voila! Now, I think this piece looks beautiful, and am tempted to leave it as it is, but there is a final step that makes it look even more beautiful. Using a fine-tipped black Sharpie pen, I outline various pathways around the piece. (I tried Microns, but the "tooth" of the watercolor paper really does them in.) I start with all of the white pathways, and usually move on to the secondary colors, like yellow in this piece. When I was finished deciding which areas to outline in black, I had my finished piece: I think I could sit around and look at it all day! I really love the results of this technique. What do you think? This was my fourth 9x12 art piece using the rubber cement resist technique. Here are the earlier ones I created: These first two have a similar color combination, with more "lake blue" in the first one. I like how they look when I photograph them without the white perimeter: I'm showing these in backwards order, because this last one I am showing you is the first one I tried. Instead of using rubber cement, I used Art Maskoid, which is the same as frisket. But my bottle was almost completely dried up so I was kind of smearing sticky frisket across the page. At first, I thought the result looked kind of terrible, but it has grown on me, and looks like a map of some archipelago far out in the ocean. (You can also see how the artist's tape didn't give as clean of an edge as the painter's tape does.) Stay tuned, because in an upcoming post I will share some pretty cards I have made using this same rubber cement resist technique!
