Artist of the Week 11/15/17

What a wild couple of weeks! Because of the power outages, professional development days (teacher workshops), and the Veterans Day Holiday, we’ve missed quite a few art classes. I only got to work with Fisher Mitchell Students one day last week! That’s one of the reasons I am recognizing another 5th grade student for their piece inspired by Vincent Van Gogh’s “Starry Night”. In Mrs. Wheeler’s class many students took their collages in new and creative directions of their own design. I saw students make piles of colorful leaves next to small rakes, log cabins, and even a tree swept up into the air. However, there was only one student that had a zip line between two of his autumn trees, that’s why I am recognizing Hayden in Mrs. Wheeler’s 5th Grade Class. Nice job Hayden!

Artist of the Week 11/8/17

This student is one of Fisher Mitchell Schools’ most prolific artists! That means she is ALWAYS making art! She often puts her own take on assignments, but where she really shines is when she depicts the shapes and patterns in the animals she loves. Payton in Mrs. Pomerleau’s 3rd Grade Class is AMAZING! Great work Payton!

Artist of the Week 11/1/17

This artist is part of a group of friends that always does quality work. In 5th grade we have been reviewing the work of Vincent Van Gogh. By 5th grade most students can recognize the work of this artist. We used Vincent Van Gogh’s famous painting “Starry Night” as inspiration for these windy day collages. Many of these student works came out great, but I was particularly impressed with the work done by Brianna in Mrs. Gerrish’s 5th Grade Class. Awesome job Brianna!
