Owl Mural



 


After 12 years of collecting Marker Caps, we have started to make a 3-d Relief.  We are running out of marker caps, so we are on the lookout for more!

Andy Warhol & Pop Art inspired these paintings by our Third Grade Students




Georgia O'Keeffe Inspired Watercolor Paintings - 4th Grade

 

 













Yes, we added a drizzle of black glue to the paintings for a bit of drama.  (Glue made with white glue and tempra paint)

Second Grade Abstract Art - Influenced by Maps

First Grade Shapes and Color



Wonderful Clean colors and great lines and shapes!  Well done First Graders!

Fifth Grade went Wild

Fifth grade students have created awesome relief masks made from recycled materials.  They are whimsical and creative.  What great use of junk, trash, and throw aways!

Reuse/ReCycle Masks - 5th Grade

The sixth grade classes have been learning about sacred corn husk masks, weaving and braiding.

Fall Art Projects






Here are a few of the art projects from Worthington Estates Elementary School.  The Art school year began at WES with a school wide lesson on Vincent Van Gogh and Sunflowers.  The school building is blossoming with sunflowers.  They will be coming down soon.
