5th grade learns about artist Keith Haring. We are doing this project in 2 parts. This first part resembles Haring's subway drawings on black paper.
This lesson was adapted by CSMA's very own Judy Schultz! Thank you Judy!
We talked about the energy and feelings we get when we look at his artwork, especially the "movement lines", and what, perhaps, were Haring's motives behind his artistic style.

Since 5th grade and 4th grade get 1.5 hours, the 2nd stage is using color oil pastel on 6"x6" variety-colored construction paper to draw, again their figures. Noticing Haring's limited palette, why he kept it limited, how that contributes to how viewers might feel when looking at his work. STAY TUNED for the colored artwork!
