We also shared amazing drawings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. as we honored him with a postage stamp design. Not everyone drew a portrait of Dr. King, some drew symbols or messages of equality. Which drawing do you think would make a good stamp design?

Celebrating Mrs. Levine's favorite artist, we tried our hands at drawing just like Vincent van Gogh. Did you know that van Gogh sketched just the way he painted? He drew with short repetitive strokes, showing direction and movement on the page. Here are some of my students' interpretations of his work. Beautiful drawings!

Please add your comments below. Our 5th grade artists would love to hear from you!
All these young artists are a true inspiration for creativity. Fabulous job!
ReplyDeleteWonderful creativity from all who have posted their work here. My thanks to Mrs Levine. Art is important to the full development of the brain. I find that the very best engineers are usually also artistic. Engineering exists at the intersection of art and science.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your wonderful comments! As more schools (such as Ranney) embrace "STEAM" education, artists all along have known that engaging students’ critical thinking skills through creativity increases motivation and success in all subjects: science, technology, engineering and math.
ReplyDeleteMrs. Fowlkes's class is thrilled to see such fine art work. Congratulations to all!!
