Paper Mache' Masks

After discussing various forms and uses of masks from around the world, students created their own mask, some comical. :) Enjoy!

















Color Wheel Cookies

 Classes who earned a good behavior treat were able to create their own color wheels - on cookies! Icing in the three primary colors were used and there were many blue tongues!






when you mix them all together!

Relief Sculptures

Included in our sculpture unit was a short balsa foam carving assignment where students were to carve at least three layers of relief carving. Balsa foam is a soft carving material where students shave away the foam to sculpt and shape the forms. While it made the room dusty it's usually a favorite!

Found Art

Hello everyone and welcome! Did you find a piece of Found Art? 

Found Art is an international arts movement with the goal of spreading goodwill throughout the world. Visual art is a natural communicator and helps open the hearts and minds of both the creator and the receiver. Students not only fulfill required visual art standards, but have the goal of sharing art with the Westerville community and beyond. Each child’s positive work of art is created and left somewhere as a gift for whoever finds it. If you found a piece of art that was made especially for you please email me at mcclellanj@wcsoh.org and please include the number that is on the artwork, where you found it, and any feedback  or message that you have for the artist. Each student has reflected on the role of the arts in their daily life and how it affects others. We hope you enjoyed finding your artwork and find a way to be a part of the arts here in Westerville!

Below are some student examples of Found Art that are going to be left for people out there in the world!
