Hi! I am Mrs. DugganThis is some of the art that I create.

Welcome to the Art Studio! Art is All Around Us…

Music is art.

Dance is art.

Acting is art.

The masks of Comedy and Tragedy

Any questions, so far?

We learn to use different art materials here.

Crayons and markers for drawing and sketching.

Oil and chalk Pastels for blending and smudging.

Paints come in different types…

• Like acrylic, tempera or oils.

Wassily kandinsky

And watercolor!

Different paper like tissue paper and patterned paper is used to create collage. (the word collage means “to glue”

in French!)

Romare Bearden

Clay for sculpting (when we sculpt we make sculptures! Get it?). We can also sculpt with other things too, like

wood, paper and cardboard.

Items like cups and bowls and vases made out of clay are called pottery. We use a kiln, which is a special kind of

very very hot stove to fire the clay.

Comments or questions? Anyone?

Are you sure?

We are lucky to have so many ways to make art! And one of the most important things about using art materials is

learning how to….

Clean UP!!!

OMG!

Blech!

The Scream by Edvard Munch

Everything has a place. If you don’t know where something goes…just ask Mrs. Duggan or a friend! Or look

again…I’ll bet you’ll find it.

• Markers and crayons should always be put back in containers after use. Make sure tops are on markers so they don’t dry out!

• Oil and chalk pastels can make a HUGE mess on the floor! So be sure to put them back in their containers when you are done!

• Paints and water always go back to the sink…but wait for Mrs Duggan’s directions so we don’t have a sink traffic jam!

• Scraps of paper can make a mess! They have their own place to live…in a scrap box!

As you can see, the Art Studio, is a special place. Here we look at art and make art. We learn from each other and art from around the world and all

through history! Seriously!
