In preparation for this project, students discussed and analyzes the artistic styles of various abstract artists currently producing and selling work in the art world. After observing defining qualities and mark-making techniques in each artist's work, our 7th graders experimented with oil pastels and developed their own unique abstract drawing styles.
While some students tended towards organic shapes and bright colors, others explored sharp angles and strong contrast. The assertive stylistic choices in their works demonstrate our students' great creativity and originality.
The majority of these works are currently on display at the East Boston Public Library, and will remain exhibited there until January 20th.
