Welcome to Quarter 4!
https://flipgrid.com/s/725f5725f2f2
Now introduce yourself by adding your own video to our flip grid. This week we are going to explore the beautiful element of color! Let’s start by watching this video about color:
Today we are going to
meet 19th Century artist
Georges Seurat who
used color in innovative
ways throughout his
career.

Once you enter the
Scholastic Art website,
click login in- then login
in as student- type in
our school code:
Today we are going to dive deeper into color! Did you know that the color wheel is divided into a variety of different color schemes? Artists use different color schemes to add emotion to or communicate
Now it is your turn to practice using color on your own! On our Microsoft teams page, find a color scheme drawing practice activity.
It is your turn to choose! On our Microsoft Teams page find sketchbook starter choices and complete one, applying what you know about color. Be creative and have fun.
