For art this week we looked at the work of American Artist Jasper Johns. We found this lesson at For the Love of Art ,another great art blog that Mrs. Watson follows.
We folded our paper into 16 squares and then used the letters in our first names to make a pattern. We used oil pastels for the letters and then watered down tempera paint to make the background for each square.

I am inspired by the excitement you build around your art work. We have a two day ‘art bash’ in April and I hope to use some of your ideas.
I’d like to see the lyrics of ‘over the rainbow’ illustrated by your team!
This is the second best version of my favourite song…ever!
Best version (personal choice)…John Martyn … great topic for musical appreciation!
What would your children like to find at the end of their rainbows?
Another example of why Mrs. Watson and her 2/3 class is so much fun to follow! You have such wonderful ideas and your students are all amazing! This looks like it was such a fun project and it’s inspired me to try to bring more art projects into my classroom! Thanks!
