Still Lifes of the Season

The 3rd and the 4th graders practiced their observation skills while drawing seasonal objects. We learned that a "still life" is when an artist draws something that stays STILL. Long ago, the most common still life was fruit and flowers which can be seen as alive/ "life". Today, it refers to anything an artist draws by OBSERVING!

(More artwork to be posted) Erin and Maximus chose to label their drawings which I thought was an nontraditional, but cool technique.
