Matisse Interiors

Here are a few of our finished Matisse Interior with Window pieces of art.  Students used oil pastel to emulate the bright colors that Henri Matisse used in his paintings.   Each window scene shows something special!

Our last class in this session will be Tuesday, Nov. 27th.   Nov. 27th is also our school's big Grand Opening Ceremony.   I would love to display your student's artwork in our art room for this special event.   I can pass out your child's artwork the next day at school.

On Tuesday, Dec. 4th, Mrs. Fornia and I will be leading the Smart with Art Holiday Workshop.  Students can create decorated glass candy glasses and a Nutcracker frame.  The workshop will be from 3:40-5:40 in the art room.

I would be thrilled to have your children in our next session.....
Reduce, Reuse, Re-­‐Art!
Have you ever looked at your trash and seen items ready to be transformed into pieces of art? NO? Well this session will change that!
Students will focus on creating works of art using recycled materials in purposeful way.
Experiment with the art of stained glass by creating a mobile with recycled CDs.
Explore circus-­‐themed sculpture utilizing repurposed cork and wire.
We will use buttons, magazines, coffee cups, newspaper and other items that will now be reused by artists for their one-­‐of-­‐a-­‐kind masterpieces!
This exciting session incorporates design concepts, historical art content, and our “green” theme.
Students are welcome to participate in collecting materials if they desire; a list will be provided upon
registration. You can register through the Sandburg Enrichment Programs.
Join us on this artful, earth friendly venture!
