New Artwork to Share!

Here is some recent work by our amazing Flynn Artists.

City Hall Art Show

Every year, Flynn artists are invited to participate in a special district-wide art show that happens at City Hall in Burlington. Unfortunately, this year with the onset of COVID-19, it didn't happen. 

Twenty-Eight Flynn artists worked really hard and I'm sure they were as disappointed as I was that we didn't get to celebrate. So let's celebrate them here!

Flynn Artists At Work!

Here is some of the artwork that Flynn Artists are creating while they are home. I love the variety of ways that students are letting their artistic abilities shine!

Art Plus!

Are you looking for some extra art activities to try while you are home? 

Below are some videos that I made for things that you can practice. 

Would you like to try weaving on cardboard? 

How about drawing 3-Dimensional shapes? Here's a fun way to turn simple geometric shapes into a forms. 

Gratitude

I'm thinking back to all of the amazing things we accomplished as artists this school year. As much as I miss all of my students right now, I'm thankful for the time that we had to be together at school and make art. Here are some pictures that make me smile. I hope they make you smile too.

Fourth Grade Underwater Collages

Fourth graders recently finished creating underwater collages. We began by making a background and painted papers using a variety of watercolor techniques. Kosher salt application made for excellent effects!

After making the backgrounds students drew, cut, and glued a variety of underwater sea life. They were encouraged to show contrast in their color choices. They were also encouraged to overlap and change the size of their objects to add the illusion of distance in their collage.
