Citrus Fruit- Circle Stancil

The season for the Citrus fruits is during the winter, so a couple of weeks ago all my classes did the artwork "citrus fruit", a great art lesson  the shape circle and mixing red and yellow to form orange.

For the upper grades they worked on a precut cardboard circle, they drew a circle using the stencil and glued a photocopy of a citrus fruit in the middle.

They formed roundshape balls from plasticine and pressed them on the linedrawing of the circle.

They colored the citrus fruit with the orange they mixed using red and yellow.

The 2nd grade students artproject was to extend the photo copy of the citrues fruit.

They used the stancil to drew more circular shape fruits.

Then they mixed red and yellow to create orange and painted the drewing.

Precut green leaves were added.

Art with the Character from the Books by Leah Goldberg

I love what came out of a 2 session artproject working on the shape of a square.

Working with a precut stancil of the square they drew squares with pastes, then painted with guache the background on the first sessions.

In the next session I gave photocopy of character from the books that are written by Leah Goldberg, a theme that our school is working on this year. They were told to place the cararcters inside the square windows they drew.

Next I gave precut striped for them to create a window panels around the window.

Below, this was done in one session by a very talented student in this class, 2nd grade special Education.

2 Stained Glass Window Projects for the Holiday Season

During this holiday season we did two stain glass artprojects, both with transparent sheet

this is made with 2 transparent sheet.
They sketched their design on paper,
 On the left he used a circle stencil.
 One one transparent sheet they glued  small color scaps we have and thefollowing lesson they worked on the same drawing with color tessue paper.
To display I sawed them together with sawing machine

Winter, The Cyclaman Plant

My favorite wild  flower is the Cyclaman, that blooms in the beginning of the winter.The flower has lovely shape leaves, shaped like a heart and  each leaf is  beautifuly  designed with a mix of greens.

So with some of my high students we used stancil to make leaves and with the rest I cut heart shape leaves out of the paper the students painted in green a week before.

We work on color, mixing white and red for pink.

 

another version of the cyclaman plant using pastels.

and another using transparent sheet and plasticine on pastel background

Dreidel

The holiday Chanukka is the the holiday of "Light", using the precut dreidle cardboard stancial all my students made this colorful and bright artproject

They used metalic silver and gold pastels with the stencil.

In some of the classes I added cooking oil to rub the pastels, oil being another holiday symbol.




...they painted bright orange and nyon yellow to make this  a very bright artwork.

Autumn Leaves and Colors

using the cardboard stancil of the circle we made this coloful Autumn Leave collage.
I photocopy a leaf I collected in the garden.

In class they drew the circle using the stancil.

Glue the photocopy leave inside the circle.


Glue cutout shape leaves cut from colorfull pages of old magazine around the circle they drew.

Paint everything in the collors of the falling leaves orange and red . 

you can see another autumn leave project done with autistic adults

Shapes, Circle with Plasticine

Keeping with my objective this year of teaching "Shapes", my teen age special ed. classes created those colorful artworks 

1. First thing create many round shape balls from plasticine.
2. Using  precut cardboard stancil  they drew the circle
3. Paint outside and inside the circle in 2 different colors.

 My after thought, it can be a good way to work on the COLOR WHEEL- using Primary Colors paints and  Secondary Colors plasticine.

Circle Stancil, Wheels

 

Teaching "Shapes" is my objective this year working in a special education school.

I love to work with stancils, all students are able to creat the shape.  
See artproject done with different stencials, leaves, hearts, fish shapes.
 this WHEELS was done with a group of 2nd grader.

After the circles they glued precut stripes of reused wrapping paper.





I made the circle stancils from used cardboard box  a few years ago of a  special event art project "Bicycle".

Plasticine Tablet- Chamsa

The Chamsa (Arabic) a lucky talisman shaped like a hand is done as a plasticine tablet on a collage using recycle wrapping paper.

Step 1. Work on a precut card board shape of a Chamsa,
 glue a line drawing of an object, and then cover the drawing with colored plasticine.
work around the object to cover the cardboad shape.
Use sharp tools to embossed pattern on the plasticine
Brush layer of glue on the shape.
Step 2.  While the Chamhsa shape dry creat a wrapping paper collage.
Step 3. Glue cardboard shape on the collage and decorate.

Winter Flower, Cyclaman plant

Another sign of winter is the cyclaman plant growing between the rocks, last year I all so posted a project using a heart shape stancil.

Using old notebook covers that I saved to use as a base for a future art project I cut heart shape stancils.

With that they drew with oil pastels the leaves of the cyclaman plant my favored winter flower. And waterdown guache was used for background.

The flowers was made on a trasparence sheet; using plasticine on the line drawing; in the same technique as the winter snail.
