3-D Doodles


My 7th grade art students “Zen-Doodled” in the art room. They mindfully filled a paper with a variety of black and white patterns. Their abstract drawings were copied and cut into small rectangles. They rolled these rectangles into tubes which they glued onto a base to create an interesting sculpture.

The PMS Art Club Spreads the Love

We took time from our individual project making to collaborate on a big mural. We experimented with ink bingo daubers, craypas, collage and printing to fill giant roll paper with many hearts. The mural hung in the Pelham Middle School library for February to spread LOVE.

CAN You Imagine

In Art Class, the 7th graders turned trash into treasure using repurposed aluminum cans. We looked at examples of artists work from smashed cans and other found objects for inspiration. The students chose a can and like Michelangelo staring at his marble from all angles, they got inspiration to transform their can into art. They used paint and collage supplies to make these whimsical pieces.
