O'KEEFFE INSPIRED LEAVES, by 3rd graders

 Third graders looked at the up close and personal painting of American Artist Georgia O'keeffe as  inspiration for their Fall leaf project.


                                         

In addition to practicing contour drawing from observation, and using watercolors effectively, the BIG IDEA was how do artist create UNITY between an object in an artwork and the background?

O'keeffe sometimes used similar colors and or similar lines to make connections between these two different parts of her images. And so did VLM students.

A collection of student work is one display in our Library.
