Calendar Art

This year for our calendar art we created geometric paintings. We were hoping to use the same technique as we did with our paper plate artwork but it was going to be difficult to pull tape of cartridge paper. So we decided to draw our lines on first, then paint our blocks of colour. Lastly we used insulation tape to make the black, white, blue or red lines on our artwork. They look great hanging up in our classroom and even better copied (in a reduced size) for our calendar art. 

Geometric Art

This week we have been looking at geometric art in preparation for our calendar art.  First we looked at lots of examples. Then we used paper plates, masking tape and paint to create our own geometric design. The masking tape was used to create the white lines between the blocks of colour. It was fun and our artwork looks fantastic!

The three steps - a plain plate, added masking tape, paint then we removed the tape to reveal our artwork.
