You really must have been inspired by the paintings done by artist Jim Dine because your patterns, lines, and colors are fantastic. Your drawing and designing skills are so very much improved. You have achieved the standard of creating an original art work using 1 shape as the focal point, understanding the art from a professional artist, pattern creations, and coloring skills. If I did not know, I would think that 5th grade art students created these. You have put forth 125% effort on this assignment! Good for you! Be sure to add an artist statement and let me know what you love the most about YOUR heart design. I can see some professional artist in the future from this group of wonderful students.
I am so proud of all the hard work each one of you put into this interdisciplinary lesson. I can tell that you really LOVE looking at and studying Native American Indian Art and Artifacts. Your use of symbols is wonderful. So is your craftmanship, patterns, designs and paper sculpture. You are AMAZING! I know you will love your shield and it will hang proudly in your home! Great work!!!!!! Feel free to add any comments that you have on making this project or how do you feel YOURS turned out and why.
