Pony Bead Animals - Level 1 (Gr. 1 & 2)

Posted 2009-01-25 17:21 by SILVERSUN

This is a single-session course with the focus of nature in art.  Students create animals out of beads as a two-dimensionsl piece with the option of adding a third dimension using embellishments.  Options for shapes include dragonfly, monkey and tree frog.  Emphasis will be placed on colour choice, texture, contrast, and pattern, as well as the student's own expression (decision-making) while creating the piece.  Each piece is fitted with a lanyard hook or split ring so that it may be attached to the student's backpack.  (Pictures coming soon)

Inuit Visual Art Exhibition for Schools - Life Near Gjoa Haven

"Life Near Gjoa Haven" This exhibition features three Inuit artists who celebrate rituals and customs connected to seasonal change in northern Canada. Jessie Kernek, Martha Koguik and Bessie Nahalolik offer traditional perspectives on daily life with particular attention given to family and the indigenous animals that provide sustenance. Inuit communities are being transformed by technology and industrial activity like many cultures throughout the world that were previously isolated. The art works in this exhibition are a testimony to an enduring way of life practiced for many centuries that continues to reflect the Inuit heart and spirit. The exhibition was originally developed by the Alberta Society of Artists as part of the Alberta Foundation for the Art Travelling Exhibition Program, where it was hosted at a number of communities throughout Alberta.

I have taught art to children from K-12.  I teach art to adults, special needs groups; at-risk-youth, clients at the Mustard Seed, seniors in nursing homes and patients in rehabilitation hospitals. 

I am motivated and passionate about working with all age groups and attempt to cultivate inspiration.

 I have taught art in the following media: pencil sketching, pastels, watercolours, acrylics, silk painting and photography. 

I have implemented projects to work in conjunction with school curriculums.  The children and I have worked on art projects for causes they feel passionate about.  I have designed creative and fun after-school art classes in my community. 

I have taught teachers pencil sketching and pastel courses of 8 weeks.
