Students will continue to explore the 20th Century Modern period of art. We began the semester by looking at the "Twin Titans" of Modern Art - Matisse and Picasso. Mr. Warren Ochoa joined the class for discussions about these two artists and their work. The studio assignment was to render a self portrait in the style of either Matisse or Picasso. Students will use oil pastels or acrylic paints to complete this project.
January 17, we will begin our journey to Abstract Expressionism and Jackson Pollack. We will begin construction of two large canvases for a demonstration of his work planned for February 1.
All students in the school will be invited to join the celebration and have a slice of a special Jackson Pollack Birthday Cake.
