Gallery of Animation Cels

The students have been working hard on completing their hand-painted animation cels. It's so much fun to see their imaginations running wild! We have a awesome collection of uniquely designed characters ranging from robots to humans, animals, and monsters, and machines!

When they are complete, the students are submitting photos of their finished project to their online digital portfolio via Google Classroom. Here are a few that have been submitted so far:

 







I will post a large gallery of work next week once more are submitted!

Painting Social Snowmen!

We had our first of two art workshops this week and had a great time! Monday was a grade 5 & 6 painting social and Tuesday was a grade 3 & 4 painting social. Both groups painted snowmen.

We used a step-by-step method to paint with acrylics on canvas. The format was similar to adult "Paint Night" socials held in restaurants or at private studios. We painted our backgrounds, had a snack, painting our snowmen, and added our own unique accessories. Although the subject was the same, all of the artists put their own creative twist on their paintings and each snowman came out different.
