Stencils

 Here are my favorites from our stencil project.  See the 8th grade section for more.

Bobble heads

Just recently finished our Bobble heads while studying some kitsch art.  The kids always have fun with these.  Enjoy and see the 8th grade section for more. 

Lichtenstein paintings, Doodle faces, and gum paintings.

Here are our last 2 projects and 1 mini project.  Roy Lichtenstein paintings, Doodle faces, and a 2 day gum painting project inspired by British street Artist Ben Wilson.  See the 8th grade tab for more artwork.

It's going to be a creative year!

Judging from our first project, I have a lot of very creative thinking students this year.  I'm really excited to see how they interpret each assignment.  It should be very fun seeing them finish ideas this year.  More examples of this are in the 8th grade section.

8th grade farewell to Sells drawings

Have a great Summer!  Enjoy your time off and make some art.  Wether it's a drawing, painting, sculpture, or duct tape art, be creative and make something.  See you next year!  Check out the 8th grade section for more Sells drawings.

Ch.ch ch chia! with an artsy twist

So far our Chia heads/creations have been growing nicely.  Still waiting on a few more to fill in with more growth.  More to come soon I promise.  Gotta love the creativity w/ the back hair chia and the overgrown elmo.  

Spring Creations!!

Lately we've been wrapping things up with a few really exciting projects.  Photos of Chia heads soon to come!!  For now we have 8th grade paper robots, 7th grade fake clay objects, and 6th grade clay sandwich containers.  Thanks for looking and feel free to tell your grandma about the Sells Art blog.

Skills to pay the bills.

For real this drawing and the others in the 7th grade section were drawn by 7th graders!  These kids are like 13 years old and have some serious skills!

New stuff for Spring!!

Our latest projects from spring have been very interesting so far.  My 7th grade finished some amazing hand drawings while my 8th graders learned how to sew while doing surgery on stuffed animals.  Then we completed live face traces with mirrors.  Pretty crazy stuff!  See each grade levels' section for more.!!  And we had tie dye friday as usual for each trimester!!

We just recently finished turning some of the most famous art works into pop-up book looking things.  Really great job everyone!  See the 8th grade tab for more.

Winter stuff

Well we've been pretty busy recently.  My 6th graders just finished up their clay sandwiches, 7th graders made robots from old computer parts, and 8th grade finished clay mugs and tape-casting.  Please check out each grade levels' tab for more pics.  Thanks.  Also, Elvis was seen trying to appear on one of our rolling pins!!  Next up are stop animation and ugly dolls.

Giacometti Duct tape style

Here are some examples of our recent project where we studied Alberto Giacometti.  We decided to do the opposite with our figures and go for correct proportion with action poses.  Here are my two favorite.  Check out the 8th grade tab for more.
