Middle schoolers studied Dave the Potter, the ceramic heritage and social history of Edgefield, SC, and Jim McDowell's storytelling of his heritage and the adaptation of the face jug with its influences from the Kongo, Jamaica, and Southern States of America. Then they combined 2 pinch pots and used their artistic license to create their own variations. Lastly, colorful underglazes and clear glaze were added before the final firing. Here are just a few...more to come. We did a group verbal and private written self critique to explore the elements of art and principles of design within their work and then express their intentions, results, and impressions. For many it was their first-ever experience with clay and they wrote about how they would like to try more and how they wanted to expand on their knowledge.

Recently i saw some friends draw their old Chracters and it looked like fun! Since its been a few years now some of them have gotten jobs and made new discoveries to themselves. They have new names but they are still the same inside. From left to right we have Umber ( Yue ) Bruce ( Kyon) and Riot (Duane) I changed their names because thwy wanted different names and even different pronouns. People grow even in drawings. #arttherapy. #middleschoolart #fantastic #cottoncandycolor #whipcreamandcherries #redforgoodluck #patterns #youllmetthem https://www.instagram.com/p/CFCHtgFnazi/?igshid=z2hayuzsn2k6

Organization is everything when you have a FULL classroom... here's the latest-- #1... I FINALLY figured out a way to keep classwork differentiated on the dry rack. Each class is assigned a color: Red=1st, Orange=3rd, Yellow=4th, Green=5th, Blue=6th [My planning is 2nd period.] NO NAMES still happen, but at least I can put it in the correct class drawer when taking work of the rack! Students have color coordinating pocket folders/portfolios as well. Those are stored inside the tables. #2... I had to do a little creative rearranging to setup an area for the Clay Unit. [aka-- an Art Teacher nightmare... seriously-- most stressful time for me but yet the most fun the kids will have all semester.] Good thing I love clay! ♡ __________________________________ #artteachersofinstagram #artteacher #chmsart #chms #middleschool #middleschoolart #tab #artclass #teachersfollowteachers #tabclassroom #teacherlife #iteachart #acrylics #artists #art #artstudio #organization #classroomhack https://www.instagram.com/p/BuSR-CiHzli/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1s3alveccw8v8

Finished student paintings from the atmospheric perspective lesson.

Work in progress that I sketched all the way back in September. She is based on a witch character that I drew sometimes back when I was in middle school/early high school. The erased face makes me laugh, I did that a lot back then, now that’s what I always start with. I have been scanning my old artwork over the last few months and decided that some of those characters deserved a second life, if nothing else for nostalgic reasons. #witchyvibes #witch #artwitch #witchart #witchythings #throwbackthursday #throwbackthursdayart #wip #wipart #workinprogress #redraw #redrawart #redrawchallenge #oldart #oc #middleschoolart #alicequinnart #oldartvsnewart #artprogress https://www.instagram.com/p/CcDqCZ6JGnU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
