4th & 8th Grade Art in 89th Street Lobby

If you're at 89th Street (or just passing by), take a little time to view the 4th grade Aboriginal paintings and 7th grade Pear Pastels in the Lobby Showcases.
The 4th grade assignment was to draw an Australian animal, reptile or fish that fits the page. Paint it and add a patterned background in the style of Aboriginal Artists.  The 7th grade assignment asked students to use chalk pastels and show the progression from light to dark across the surface of a pear, and then add the shadow to create a convincing illusion of volume.
