5th Grade Personalized Soup Cans

5th Grade students at SJV recently learned about the exciting and POPular artist, Andy Warhol. Students loved Warhol's use of bright colors and playful imagery.


Students donned the roles of chefs and designers in this project. They had to create their own flavor of soup and design the label for their soup cans. 5th graders chose some wacky soup flavors including Bacon Cheeseburger, Pizza, Goldfish Crackers, and even Candy flavored soups!

To design their labels, students studied Campbell's soup packages. Using watercolor paints students created fun labels for their unique soups!

Check out some of the end results!


 
 

Fantastic job, 5th grade!

2nd Grade Charlie Harper Inspired Cardinals

Snow has hopefully come to an end during this long winter in WNY! During the snowier months, 2nd graders created winter scenes inspired by illustrator Charlie Harper. Harper is well known for his illustrations of birds, especially Cardinals! 


Students loved the bright and simplistic shapes and lines of Harper's birds. Using white paint and construction paper, 2nd graders created their own Cardinals in a snowy winter landscape! 

Check out these cute Cardinals!



 


Awesome job, 2nd Grade!!!
