5th grade self-portraits














Fifth graders studied famous portrait paintings and caricature cartoons. They used their knowledge of facial porportions and exageration to create their own self-portrait picture.
























Foundation for Schools grant awarded!


5th graders will be taking a field trip to the Samuel P. Harn Museum of Artto see the recent acquisition of one of Kehinde Wiley's oil paintings. http://www.harn.ufl.edu/

The students will also be creating an original piece of art in the style of Wiley based on a unit of study.
