Motion Sculptures in Second

Second graders studied motion and texture in artwork.  They created texture on their sculpture base by splattering paint in different colors to create a design of their own.  With a colorful, solid base they took different lengths, colors and textures of paper to create a sculpture demonstrating motion.  They added "feet" to their sculpture parts to make sure they were stable, then looped, spiraled and intertwined them with each other, until they had a balanced, complete artwork.  We became architects, road engineers, playground creators, roller coaster builders and skate park designers all while producing extreme artworks!
