Positive Post-Its!

The first week of school grades Y5-5th created either a positive image or message to share on their post it note. We hung these outside the art room to share some positivity to the whole school!

Monochromatic Self Portraits

The first week of school grades K-5 created a monochromatic self portrait. They learned that monochromatic means "one color" and they demonstrated their knowledge by creating a self portrait with a single color. Check out the amazing work of Burns Park's artists!

Animated Creatures- Sub Plan

Students' created these fun animated creatures while I was out sick. The end results were too fun not to share!

Feathers of Thankfulness inspired by Kelsey Montague 

Y5-5th grade designed a feather inspired by Kelsey's wings titled "What Lifts You". The students wrote what they were thankful for on their feather and created their own patterns around the word. All of the feathers were then used to create 2 large wings for the Burns Park community to stand in front of and take pictures just like Kelsey Montague's wings. Come check them out when you get a chance they are on the 2nd floor by the gym and the lost and found!

THANK YOU X inspired mural

Every student from Y5-5th grade designed a cube to be apart of our first all school mural of the 2019/20 school year. The cubes were put together to form the mural. We looked at contemporary artist "Thank You X" who is well known in LA for creating murals with the repetition of cubes in a bright abstract style.
