Funky Flowers

Fourth grade students created fun, funky flowers for our Kids Art Fair show, December 13th.  Students looked at flowers created by Georgia O'Keefe.  She focused on the flower, showing detail to the center of the flower and petals.  Inspired by her work, students created a large flower.  Some students found it easier to draw a variety of shapes, tracing lids for circles and rulers to create triangles.  To help the flower pop from the paper students had a variety of colors to choose from including fluorescent paint.  Students used fingers to create texture, outlined petals, even added polka dots to create their own unique, creative, fun, funky flowers!
