PERSPECTIVE LANDSCAPE COMPOSITIONS in WATERCOLOR and PENCIL

After studying the principles of linear perspective and American landscape painters, students created paintings and drawings in watercolor and pencil. Emphasis was placed on one point perspective, horizon line and vanishing point as well as foreground, middleground and background. Art work shown in this section were award winners at the "KIDFEST" Arts and Craft Festival held at the Monterey County Fairgrounds in October.

ACRYLIC and WATERCOLOR PAINTING

Lessons in mixing and applying acrylic paint to canvas and instruction in watercolor techniques and transparency were studied for this assignment. The Elements of Design: line, color, value and space, are evident in each work of art created by Studio Art students.

"WELCOME TO OUR CHIHULY WALL"

A DVD titled "Chihuly Bellagio" as well as a companion book was the introduction to a lesson on glass blowing by artist Dale Chihuly. By improvising, students melted vinyl records in hot water and shaped their "Chihuly bowl". Fluting was added before each piece had hardened. A coat of Gesso was applied and then dried fluorescent paints were used to create a myriad of Chihuly like designs.
