Fifth Grade Printmaking

My fifth graders used pop art, Andy Warhol and Wayne Thiebaud as inpiration for their designs that they carved into EZ Cut linoleum blocks. They rolled ink onto their printing blocks with brayers and printed multiple times in an array of colors. They finished off their work by presenting their four best prints as a group.

Fourth grade art students observed and drew their own shoe and created an interesting environment for their shoe keeping perspective in mind. After reviewing the color wheel they used cool and warm color schemes to paint their foreground and background.
