Ms. Demel's Art Experiments...

Hey there art peeps!


What favorite, creative activities have been relaxing you these past few weeks?
Have you even had time to get creative? (I see many of you are doing a great
job trying to keep up with your regular school work). Being an art teacher, it is my
job to experiment and find art activities for you to enjoy while staying at home and
sheltering in place. Some things I have had fun fiddling around with are creating
relief rubbings, making my own scratch-art, and sharing goofy Whatchmadrawit
sketches through our weekly Zoom meetings. These types of activities have been
helping me stay in good spirits while cooped up at home.


Below I will share photo collages of art pieces resulting from my creative, home
activities. I invite you, as well, to share images of your work with me. (Contacts at
the end of the post)!


As always, happy art-making!

Week Four!

E-Learning in the Bulldog Art Room: April 20th - 24th

Hello my most amazing artists! I was very sorry to hear that we will not be able to physically return to school, but let’s try to use this time at home to live artistically and relish in our most creative selves. What are things that have been keeping you going? Well, for me, I have been creating a LOT of art, plus I have been enjoying movies, music, podcasts and literature created by other individuals. I am so thankful to all the creative thinkers and doers out there, because their creations have been keeping me sane! I have also been becoming more tech savvy, making video tutorials for the coming weeks (you will have access to those tutorials starting next week - yea!). Until then, enjoy our fourth week of art projects at home. I miss you and am thinking of you!

Check out the ARTS Arena:
Arts for Rural Texas, aka ARTS, is a Fayette County non-profit organization and advocate of the arts. They are a great organization to support, plus they have created a digital art program called ARTS Arena to help entertain, educate, and unite our children and families during the COVID-19 sheltering in place. Each week this program offers an idea, or seed of thought to inspire the creation of art.  Art created may be a drawing, a painting, a clay piece, a poem, a photograph, a video, music, a short performance - the options are limitless. For more information on the ARTS Arena program and to see their fun prompts, visit: https://artsforruraltexas.org/arts-arena
