10/7 This week in art!

 

Hello Artists, 

This week in art we will continue to work with the amazing color wheel! Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd will be turning their wheels into amazing creatures and all other grades will be exploring the warm and cool colors of the wheel. Check out your lessons for more details.

This week for your extra art activity I wanted to take you on a virtual tour of one of my favorite contemporary art museums, The Broad in Los Angeles. It is full of fun and wonderful contemporary art. Check out the tour below and let me know what your favorite art piece in the tour is. I especially like the Jeff Koons, Balloon Dog sculpture. 


Have a great week!

💜
