Britto Puppy


Today first graders started a new project. We began by discussing our pets and then read a book about dogs. We also looked at artworks by Romero Britto and discussed his life.

Students practiced drawing their puppy. We then drew one together, put in lines and began to paint in the shapes.






This week students watched a short video of Romero Britto working on art. They spent the rest of the hour painting their puppy.



Today students glued their puppy onto a frame. We also brainstormed different lines and shapes that could be used to design the puppy.



The students went "puppy hunting" with a black crayon to find the puppy and outline it. They began to add in designs with oil pastels after the outlining was done.



Today students finished their puppies. They added designs and patterns to complete the artwork. 




They turned out great!
