Van Gogh's "Wheat Fields" was our inspiration piece for a landscape painting as we traveled to color stations dab, dab, dabbing like Mr Van Gogh, separating our warms and cools at the horizon line.
Lafayette artists are learning about the power of the arts to transmit joy, transform sorrow, change minds, and heal hearts! In Lafayette’s art studio classroom we are not only learning about the elements, principles and media of the visual arts, but are using the arts to gain a greater understanding, depth and richness of language arts, math, science and social studies curricula. We are hoping learning in and through the arts at Lafayette nurtures lifelong learners and creators!

First graders spent some time last month playing with color... mixing secondaries and tertiaries from primaries and slicing the color wheel in half as we learned about warm (fire! hot lava!) and cool (blue water, cool green grass) colors.
