One of the most exciting visual arts units to witness this year has been 7th grade's foray into Abstract Expressionism and Contemporary Abstract Art. After utilizing Chromebooks to complete online image and artist research in class, 7th graders experimented with countless techniques in mark-making; etching; layering of colors and manipulation of materials; concepts in composition; organic vs geometric shape; and use of line to create movement and rhythm. I have been so awed by the infinite creativity and innovation of our 7th grade artists in this exploration. I hope that you enjoy these works of art as much as I have enjoyed watching the creative process behind them!
