Today the students created pottery using the ipad app, Pottery Lite. The students really enjoyed creating virtual pottery using the ipad. 
 

 Quilt Project is hanging in the school
 
 Last year the 5th grade students at Long Branch completed a quilt project of digital photographs that they manipulated using Photoshop filters and printed on fabric. Then the students hand sewed and machined sewed the the quilt together. The students also skyped with quilt artist Faith Ringgold about their quilt project. The quilts are hanging in the front and back stair wells of the school. 
 
Happy Holidays! 
Students have been looking at the flower paintings of Georgia O' Keefe and painting large poinsettias. 
 

In 5th grade art enrichment the students are working with some drawing apps on the iPad. This week we looked at landscape drawings by David Hockney on the iPad. The students were inspired to create their own landscapes. They use app sketchbook express.
 
Happy Thanksgiving! 

Students created turkeys looking at artist Audubon's Wild Turkey painting. The students also used warm colors to paint their turkeys.
