Paul Klee Pumpkins



Second graders are learning all about Paul Klee in Art class. His child-like, playful drawings and paintings are the perfect subjects for young artists. We decided to use his portrait style to create some Halloween jack-o-lanterns. We used warm and cool colors of tempera paints to create our bright designs!

Giraffes!


Second graders loved making these fanciful giraffes! We talked about drawing simple shapes for the head and face and adding a long neck poking into the page. We practiced printmaking to make the leaves surrounding our colorful giraffes!
