Student Spotlight: Jonathan
There are many talented students at Dundee Community Schools. Here is a look at some amazing work done by Jonathan. He is currently going into 8th grade and has a passion for “junk" art, experimenting and assemblages. I have been so impressed by his work, I just had to share. He has been updating me over the summer with his creations. I hope you appreciate them as much as I do.
Above is one of his most recent pieces and my personal favorite!
Last summer at art camp students created junk assemblages. Above is one of Jonathan’s examples. This is when I learned about his love for creating out of junk.
Below is a picture of Jonathan’s studio space in his basement…
Another great thing I love, is Jonathan documents his art on YouTube. Check out/subscribe to his channel….

Great work Jonathan, keep it up!

Third graders have been busy learning about the art of different cultures around the world. Recently we studied origami from Japan and Aboriginal Art of Australia.
Origami Pictures
We used this website for lots of origami ideas: http://en.origami-club.com/easy/index.html
Students chose an Australian animal as the focus of their painting. Next they added dots, inspired by the Aborigines.

4th Graders Learn about Henri Rousseau...
This week in art 4th graders will be exploring the art of Henri Rousseau. Rousseau was known for painting pictures of jungles.
We looked at a Prezi and played with an online jungle making tool. Check it out and make your own jungle... http://www.nga.gov/kids/zone/jungle.htm
Students if you make a jungle online, print it off and bring it to class for inspiration. We will be starting our own jungle collages this week!
