Scratchboard comes in sheets with a black layer on top and white, gold, or silver underneath. Students placed photos on top of the scratch board and traced over the contours of the image. This leaves dents in the scratchboard, which are used as guides on where to scratch. Students were challenged to create a scratchboard which showed different values, textures, and showed three dimensional form. They used exacto knives to scratch away the black layer, paying attenction to the directions of their strokes (texture, form) and how dense their scratch marks were (value).

I think they did a great job!

Nikki McClure Inspired Sharpie Project

by e10391

For this project, students were instructed to create a design that had some solid black, some solid white, some textured areas with both black and white, and then a pop of color somewhere. We looked at the art of Olympian Paper Artist Nikki McClure for inspiration. We used sharpie markers, colored pencils, and even some acrylic paint. Here they are!

SHS Fantasy Themed Watercolors

by e10391

For the Music and Arts Festival Art show, SHS students picked a fantasy subject matter to paint. They drew it, cut masking tape into thin strips, and masked out the lines. We experimented with different watercolor techniques, using salt, rubbing alcohol, saran wrap, toothpicks, tooth brushes, etc. Students could utilize any of these as they chose in their paintings. Here are some of them for you to enjoy!
