Color It Like you MEAN it!: December 2014

Art By Me program. Tuesday, December 16, 2014. This is the last week before Christmas! It really is the most exciting time of the year! We've had so much going on and I've had several classes missing art to practice for their annual Christmas program, so we haven't had much time to do an in-depth project. I am glad to have them back for this last week so we're doing a quick but cute little project for Christmas! I found the inspiration for this one on Pinterest of course! Had a very shiny nose! I have be...

Art By Me program. Wednesday, January 28, 2015. As we are wrapping up some of our winter projects this week, I can't help but to wish for some snow to go along with them! I know they're getting a ton of it in the Northeast this week, so maybe they can share a little with us? It doesn't snow often here in the south, but when it does, it's like Christmas all over again! At least for me it is! Monday, January 5, 2015. Before Christmas break I sent my 4th graders home with a little homework task. Subscribe t...

Art By Me program. Monday, September 29, 2014. 3rd grade owls for Art By Me. This is one of my favorite projects! They always turn out beautiful! Here are a few from this year. Friday, September 19, 2014. Have I mentioned lately how much I love paint? Well, I do. I love the smell (the non-toxic varieties, mind you! I know. I may be slightly, or not so slightly, crazy. But I don't mind being a bit crazy about paint. We still used it, but only when necessary! Surprisingly, the kids are quietest when they p...

Color It Like you MEAN it!: Painted paper trees
http://criscoart.blogspot.com/2015/04/painted-paper-trees.html
Art By Me program. Wednesday, April 22, 2015. I used some of my 1st graders' artwork for our volunteer gifts in my previous post. The remaining classes also completed a similar version but instead of using green construction paper for the leaves, we used our painted paper that we created earlier in the year. I also had a substitute for one group and she is a fantastic one! Here are the landscape versions, I was thinking it would be better to have more room for the flowers, but now I love both versions.

Art By Me program. Friday, March 20, 2015. Happy First Day of Spring! Ironically, today is a dreary, cold, and rainy day. The temperature is a balmy 45 degrees on the first day of spring. :( So. I'm happy to be creating such beautiful bright and colorful flowers in a few of my classes this week. It definitely has brightened up my morning! We added polka dots to the background of these and I love the striking effect of them! Monday, March 16, 2015. More Georgia OKeefe inspired paintings! I found them here.

Art By Me program. Friday, August 8, 2014. It's been such a busy summer! I love even more that two canvases got to come home with me! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I have been teaching elementary school art for 10 years. I love drawing, painting, and creating things. The only thing better than creating art, is being able to TEACH it to others! I always tell my students to color dark and heavy with colored pencils or crayons, and I often say "Color it like you MEAN it! View my complete profile.

Art By Me program. Friday, February 13, 2015. Valentine's Day is one of my favorite holidays, I'm not sure why, maybe it's all the red and pink! I've always loved it and now with my own children we always make a big deal of Valentine's Day every year. My students are working on these nifty looking abstract hearts this week. I've done so many variations of this project, but it's a great quick, yet neat looking design that I always fall back on! My usual variation for older students involves patterns!
