Sam's portrait outline and value scale are all ready to start painting! |

8th Grade Art:
Jessica's Pixel Portrait is off to a great start! |
"This week in art class, we were introduced to pixel portraits. We worked with adobe photo shop to edit our picture for this project. We placed a grid over our picture and then made a bigger grid with sharpie over the top. Then we took grid paper and colored in half or full squares to make it look pixely. I mixed colors to make look more like the picture."
-Jessica D, Period 2
In other art news...
Special thanks to Mrs. Stezowski, our PTA President, for helping to hang yet another batch of 6th grade Dale Chihuly-inspired works in the cafeteria! Each installment fills the ceiling space even more - the pictures don't do it justice. So cool!
This is amazing and hilarious: Nerdy photo series turns superheroes into 16th century works of art.
Thanks for another great week!
- Mrs. L.
