LINEAR TEXTURE WITH WATERCOLOR
7TH GRADE ART WHEEL - 3RD QUARTER - 2015-2016
watercolor & marking pen
Both.
Back in the day we called it Doodling,
but now it's called by a new fancy name,
Zentangling.
Let's see what the 7th graders did with it.
Reese Velez,
one of my most artistically gifted 7th graders this year ,
blew us out of the water with this very sophisticated design.
Than Mmossi Gamero brought in her signature butterfly to tell her story
on top of her atmospheric watercolor wash.
Loren Kim put in tremendous effort with this crazy amazing design.
And Athena Rose Sanchez found a clever way to incorporate her name
overtop her lovely design.
And we finish with young Palmer Patel
who always gives us an original take on all his art pieces.
I'm always delighted by the amount of time and effort that go into Zentangle doodles. This latest group shows the same dedication, but Loren Kim has taken it up a notch. There is such an incredible sense of motion within her piece. The upper right brought Escher to mind and the squared-off spirals highlight the tension between linear and organic lines throughout the piece. The more I look at it, the more I like it. Kudos!
