Fresh & Fruity!


1st Grade Still Life
Farmingville's First Grade artists have been studying the “Still Life” as a subject matter. Our artist's looked closely at a variety of still life works of art and compared them to other types of subject matter.
To begin their art exploration they created a still life painting of apples on a plate. They then each created a mini still life out of clay utilizing hand building methods such as pinch, pull & coil.
 
With attention to technique in the medium and proportion of the subject each student created a bowl of strawberries, blueberries & whipped cream!!!



Still life
An artwork showing an arrangement of objects that cannot move on their own, such as fruit or flowers. Typically the arrangement is set up by the artist.
