It's All About Dogs

The entire school community read the book Hotel for Dogs over the summer.  In art, we began the year with all sorts of art based on the book, and based on dogs.  4th and 5th graders learned about Cajun artist, George Rodrigue, and his Blue Dog paintings.  They created their own monochromatic dog drawings with backgrounds of contour lines.

1st and 2nd graders used their imaginations to create a unique hotel for dogs, with things like swimming pools, trampolines, and dog art studios!

Kindergartners started with crayon rubbings using texture screens.  They used these textured papers to create dog collages based on the artwork of artist, Keith Haring.

Third graders also studied the Blue Dog paintings of George Rodrigue.  They drew their own version of Blue Dog, using all the shades of blue they could find.  The filled their backgrounds with warm colors and designs.
