This Week – Donate Extra Cardboard
In the art room we are reclaiming cardboard to create our upcoming artworks inspired by David Butler’s whimsical tin constructions. Reclaiming what has been discarded, making our own materials and enhancing artistic choice are important themes for us as we study outsider artists this semester.
Each student that is currently in art will need one piece of cardboard from home in order to begin their project. Students will choose the size of their artwork based on the cardboard that they claim/reclaim as their own.
If you have extra cardboard, we can always use more! Cereal boxes, shipping boxes and shoe boxes work great. If you can, please cut down all boxes into rectangles so that students can begin their sketches immediately.
Thank you for your support!
Mrs. Vecchioni
