Chuck Close Portraits

The 7th grade students tackled a scale and proportion unit that included building a scaled model, a scaled Looney Tune project using oil pastel and a self portrait in the style of chuck Close. These pictures show the process by which students are applying line patterns and value to match their original picture to create a portrait.

Dream Weavers

 

 

The Collaborative Knitting Unit was a HUGE success and involved not only students, but community members as well to weave each strip together. We contributed 20 stadium sized blankets to Project Linus last week. We are very proud of everyone involved!
