Graduation Self Portraits June 2011

 This graduation art project is becoming a school tradition.

I take photos of all the 6th grade students and convert them on Photoshop into a high contrast line drawing printed on a transparency. The students create their own personal statement and add pop collage colors. The works are hung up in the multi purpose room on promotion day and are a gift to families after the ceremony.


Sketchbook project-September 2010

6th grade students created sketchbooks that they will use throughout the year for warm up exercises and planning. They were allowed to design their own cover with a few specific elements: Title, name, classroom, and all or part of their hand. They enjoyed the creative freedom for personal expression.
