Middle School Art - Shape and Design

"Stuck Inside" by Jaclyn B.

 In Middle School Art, students just learned about the Art Element of Shape. We learned that in the world of art, Shape is a flat area surrounded by edges or an outline. If a shape is not flat (3-dimensional) it is referred to as Form. There are also two kinds of shapes: Geometric and Organic. Geometric shapes are precise and regular and usually have a mathematical equation associated with it. Organic shapes are free-form and often found in nature. For our Shape Assignment, students created designs or a scene with colored/painted paper shapes; much like the artist Henri Matisse or the children's book author/illustrator Eric Carle. They then gave their artwork a fun title. Have fun perusing their Shape Designs!
