Fifth graders created op art inspired by artists such as Bridget Riley who specialize in optical illusion. Notice that each line is a miniature value scale shaded from light to dark or dark to light. Using the element of value allows us to create images that appear three dimensional. Fifth graders also selected color schemes to give their work unity (the principle that describes "pulling it all together" in art).

My students inspire me with their enthusiasm, creativity, questions, and great ideas. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, walking, yoga, and of course, art (art museums, festivals, & creating art). Archives
