Artwork by Yerin, 5th grade
Recently, fifth grade students studied American artist, Georgia O’Keefe. O’Keefe is known for being one of America’s most important modern artists. In the 1920’s she was famous for her large flower paintings. The children studied how she presented them up-close, as if the viewer was looking at them through a magnifying glass. The students were inspired by her technique. They created their own “close-up” drawings from actual pictures of animals and flowers. After sketching out their pictures they colored them in with chalk. They worked so hard and did such a wonderful job!
