5th Grade- "Bad Hair Day" Patterns

We used exaggeration to create these big-haired portraits.

We used repetition and patterns to make the hair interesting.


We also learned about warm, cool and neutral colors.


Did you know that if you cut the color wheel in half, one side will have all the warm colors and the other will be cool?










Here is a cool video featuring a musical arrangement from Raymond Scott, a famous composer of electronic video game and 'cartoon' music. Notice the patterns in the music, as well as the patterns in the artwork on the video.
