The Art Room

The ART Room!! 


"Creativity Takes Courage" - Henri Matisse

Creativity fills the art room at both Riverview and Fishcreek Elementary! SoOo far this year we have used a variety of mediums including: watercolors, oil pastels, tempera paint, colored pencils, watercolor pencils and of course crayons and markers. Later this year we will be using:
  • Clay....and my 4th graders are going to be able to experiment with glaze!!! 
  • Aluminum & Copper Tooling 
  • Aluminum Foil
  • Scratch Paper 
That is just naming a few!! 

When we are finished with our artwork we.....KEEP CREATING!! 
This is our "go-to" area when we have completed our artwork! These are alternate art projects that we are not going to do as a class and they are generally related to what we have been learning about or another form of art.

Another alternative to the projects on the board, are our drawing books! I have a collection of drawing books in the art room that show step by step how to draw something. Some of these drawing books include: How to draw...
  • Desert Animals
  • Underwater Animals
  • Race Cars
  • Grassland Animals
  • Disney's Cars, Princesses & Characters
  • Nickelodeon's Avatar & Characters
  • Pokemon
More are on the way!!
