Welcome to Eagles Art!

Gold Ridge students are really talented artists! Enjoy exploring and uncovering your creative side. Your art docents are here to take you on an art journey this year. 

01

Sandra Boynton

Sandra Boynton is a brilliant author/illustrator. We will practice drawing a whimsical chicken with pencils inspired by Boynton's characters. 

02   Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso consistently evolved as an artist. This lesson will center on Picasso's Cubist phase, where shapes are broken apart by adding lines to create new spaces for color.

03  Georgia O'Keeffe

Georgia O'Keeffe was an American artist who painted nature in a way that showed how it made her feel. She is best known for her paintings of flowers and desert landscapes.

 

We will be using watercolors to paint a close-up of a flower to celebrate some of O'Keeffe's most famous paintings.

04   Gregory Kondos

Gregory Kondos was a contemporary artist who lived in Sacramento. His beautiful paintings capture areas in Northern California. We will be doing an acrylic painting of a landscape inspired by Kondo's style, minimal with a vast sky.

05  Vivienne Williams

Vivienne Williams is a contemporary artist. She produces beautiful still-life acrylic paintings that are layered and textured.

​

Our inspired still-life piece will be crafted using oil pastels. We will use toothpicks to add texture and dimension.

06   The Wave

We will compare how six different artists captured the sea in their paintings. By changing the sky, the perspective, and the size of the waves, the artists set the mood for the viewers. We will then explore warm versus cool colors in a watercolor painting and apply salt to create a chemical reaction that adds a beautiful movement of color.
