Spring may be chilly, but it’s just fine for us Penguins! Young artists in Mr. Spitzer’s 3rd Grade class worked collaboratively to create this segmented image of three emperor penguins amid an arctic landscape. Using oil pastels to recreate seemingly abstract shapes from cut squares of a photograph, each student rendered two drawings that, ultimately, join to form a complete image. The unique way that each student approached the mark-making and blending process adds to the overall vibrancy and multi-dimensional quality of the piece.
