7th & 8th grade Artists


 7th and 8th grade artists learned watercolor techniques including masking, wet-on-dry, wet-on wet and watercolor wash.  Watercolor paint is a a difficult medium but after a little practice, middle school artists created these beautiful Birch tree compositions.

7/8th grade artists studied the artwork of Pop Artist Peter Max.  Ms. Babusci loves the early artwork of Peter Max.  I fondly remember this poster from my childhood.  Ms Gough remembers having Peter Max stationary.  His artwork was popular in the early 70's:


Utilizing the Photo Booth application (and our new Studio 101 Apple computers!)  Middle school artists worked with a partner to photograph their profiles.  They created these original compositions incorporating: radial lines, profiles, color mixing and blending techniques, fantasy and repeated shapes.  The paintings are quite large and artists worked for many weeks to complete them.  The results are stunning.
