Flower Collages

inspired by the paintings of Georgia O'Keeffe

"Fill a space in a beautiful way."

Georgia O'Keeffe

The 3rd graders worked with their new-found knowledge of the life and artistic style of Georgia O'Keeffe as they created an exaggerated view of a flower through collage. We kept the concept of Radial Balance (working in a circle) in our process as we cut large, medium and small petals.  We found creative solutions in making flowers that are as unique as we are as we added colorful details to our works of art.  We kept our focus right up until the end as we continued to refine our projects with additional details.

"I hate flowers - I paint them because they're cheaper than models and they don't move."
