BEGINNERS . . . Drawing and Painting

Painting by Catherine

Our Beginner artists created these wonderful scenes with mixed colors of paint and adorable crayon drawings. We used blue and white paint to create a light blue color for the sky and added brush strokes of white on top as fluffy clouds. Yellow and blue mixed together gave us the perfect grassy green color for the ground. Our animals were drawn with crayons and we used circles and lines to create them.

Note to families...
This art blog will be updated regularly with new posts sharing our daily activities in the art room and news about upcoming art exhibits. To respect the privacy of our students, names will always be limited to first name only and identifiable photos will never be accompanied with a name. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to write in the comment box below or send me an email at blevine@ranneyschool.org. I would love to hear from you!
    In my class, students are given the chance to explore different materials and fun new techniques as they develop their signature style. Some young artists love to draw with a pencil, some like to paint on canvas or create images in a digital format, while others prefer working with clay and molding three-dimensional forms. In my classroom, we use a variety of materials allowing all artists to experiment and figure out which type of art they like the best. At Ranney School, we place a strong emphasis on originality and celebrate artistic differences, always nurturing and encouraging the imagination of every student.
