Schoolwide Artist in Residence Program!

 
Our school was lucky to have an artist in residence program this year! I invited sculptor Susan Warner to come and work with myself and Eagle View students to create some amazing pieces!  
Check these out! The pictures speak for themselves! 
Fourth graders and Fifth graders made boxes with lids.
(love the pink tongue!)
Third graders created any animal they chose. 
 

Mother and pup! 


 
Amazing detail with the glaze! 

Beautiful turn out with the glazed star! 

First and Second graders made turtles 



"X" Box 
 Calico with green eyes, one of my favorites!


Kindergartners made a bird in a nest with eggs.
Love this calico cat on a box!




Lovely texture on these turtles!


Check out the layered glaze work on this handle by a fourth grader!
More great fur/texture!



Incredible colors, wow!






Third graders had crazy imaginations!

Thrilling Third Graders~ Ted Harrison Inspired Snow Scapes!

 Third Graders studied the art of Canadian artist Ted Harrison!
 They loved the layers in his paintings and the fact that he did unconventional things with color. Who doesn't love a red lake and purple sky?
 We went on to paint in the same style as Mr. Harrison. I really think they got it judged by the examples below, don't you think?

JESSICA
 They had so much fun mixing new colors. Some even wrote down the "ingredients" they used in case they needed to make more of their color later. Impressive!

 Great patterns in the sky!

BRIGID
 I like how some students were consistent with how much water they used to incorporate more tints than bright colors.

 LOVE the lime green waterfall here!
 Nice door Ted!
