7th Grade Paintings

Surrealist Landscapes
Students studied Surrealism, an art movement from the 1920's where artists used the element of surprise and unexpected combinations to create dream-like artworks.  Students chose their own landscape to paint and added unexpected elements to create these Surrealist Landscapes.  
 

 










Paint a Song
Each student selected a song and expressed that song through painting.  Students listened to their songs and brainstormed, thinking of colors, images, moods, memories, and other things associated with the song.  They used a lot of creativity in making these artworks while enhancing their painting skills.  They did a wonderful job with this project!
