Jeanne Anderson Watercolors

I am teaching 4 classes this semester. Art Attack - middle school art (3 students) Copy Cats! - k-2 art (3 students) Image Bearers - 3-5th grade art (1 student) Art 101 - High School art (5 students) All of my students started out with lessons about the color wheel. Pretty basic, I know, but foundational for sure. The high schoolers had to design a color wheel. The past two weeks we worked on pastel still lifes and had amazing results.

These are projects my students completed last semester. My Painting and Poetry class completed a HAITI mural (purchased from Kathy Barbro's Art Projects for Kids). Our church has a ministry to Haiti so we use the poster every time we have an information night or bake sale for the Haiti mission. The high school watercolor students did a barn study. In this study the barns were gridded onto watercolor paper first then completed. Their final watercolor project was of a subject of their choosing.

The poinsettias were painted by my k-2 class in Georgia O'Keeffe style. The watercolors were painted by my H.S. fine art painting class.

My middle schoolers are doing a great job with the different projects I throw their way. This week we made character puppets. Last week we learned about Op Art. Good job guys!

Pastel Paintings

Recently finished this group of four paintings as a gift for a dear friend's baby. Used modeling paste and gel medium for texture. Fun!

My Fine Art Painting class produced this phenomenal painting for our church's stairway. They all took turns painting different aspects of it - background, cruciform, color choices, lettering. Special thanks to Mr. Anderson for choosing a great verse for it! We all hope it is a blessing for the church (they might choose to hang it in the bathroom or maybe a closet, who knows!! :)).
