Art Challenge #12:  Create a 2D Artwork Using the Foam Piece Provided

Drawing, painting, stencilling, resist.  I thought “Let’s see what they would do with sections of a pool noodle I scrounged and cut up on my mitre saw one day…”

Art Challenge #11:  Build a Sculpture Out of Lego

I think the idea of Lego as sculpture didn’t really make it to the general student population, but the enthusiasm of the entrants could hardly be discouraged … so here goes!

Art Challenge # 10:  Draw or Paint an Eye

I’ve had a mini set of instructions of “how to draw an eye” up on the front board of the Art Room for about a month now, and some students have made attempts at it.  I decided to go one further and made drawing an eye one of the Art Challenges.  I got a tremendous response – take a look with your own eyes.  Ha!

No photographs for this one, I’m afraid.  I can’t even remember the results, at the time of this posting.  I was in the midst of  my grant application … sure hope I get one this time!

 

Art Challenge #6:  Draw, Paint, or Construct a Winter Scene on a Box

For this challenge I provided boxes neatly wrapped in white paper, so their winter scene(s) could be on all sides.  The drawing could traverse the sides OR each side could be a separate drawing – their choice.
