Rodeo Ideas

Students in Grades 1-5 studied the New Mexico Landscapes of Georgia O'Keeffe to create interesting backgrounds for their cowboys and cowgirls. Students used oil pastels and images from photographs Mrs. Stewart took on a recent trip to Ghost Ranch in New Mexico to create their artworks. Emphasis on horizon line, foreground, middle ground and background were accented in each original work. The students will continue to study landscape painting in different mediums throughout the school year.
