welcome to your online art studio!
Hello, Students & Parents!
Thank you for your patience while I work on getting art projects up, and links all working, on the art site. It's been encouraging to hear from so many of you and see what you're creating at home! The student gallery will be posted over the weekend. I look forward to filling it with more creative wonders from our amazing student artists!
This week, I've discovered some FREE creative opportunities being offered by famous authors, artists, illustrators, filmmakers and others around the world to support your creativity during closures. Seriously not to be missed, once-in-a-lifetime FREE creative opportunities! Ask for your parents permission and help to find more information if something interests you. I'm a huge fan of these brilliant artists and creators, so you might even catch me in some of the sessions!
The complete list can be found HERE. I'll be updating it regularly with more offerings as they're made available, so check back a lot! Keep having fun creating!!

A note to students & parents... |

Hello from your online art studio! I look forward to seeing you in our school studio soon, but while you're away from the building, I'm keeping busy collecting a lot of ways for you to explore your creativity from home, including some art lessons and surprises from one of our favorite bands in the art room, Ok Go!
There's a lot of creating you can do at home and it's a guaranteed way to bust boredom! Some of the activities I'll be posting include creating story scenery, making books, and even creating stop-motion movies! The links at the bottom of this page will take you to some fun video tutorials and some awesome apps & games that your parents can help you download to take your creativity to the next level.
Just because you're hanging out at home doesn't mean you can't explore the world using Google Earth. Check out the link to Google's Arts and Culture page to take a virtual walk through museums around the world, and even view famous artworks on your own wall using your phone or ipad!
Have a fantastic break, and have fun getting artsy at home! I'll see you in the art studio soon!
Sincerely,
Ms. Davidson
Please reach out if I can support you or answer any questions...I will be available via email M-F this week 9:30am-10:30am, and will respond to your emails outside of those hours as soon as possible throughout the break
