This is going to be a BIG project and I am so excited about it! I wanted the students to do a 3-D sculpture for their next project and I was inspired by Vincent van Gogh's chair painting. I thought it would be neat for each student to come up with their own chair design based on a famous artist.
Each student was assigned a famous artwork and researched their piece in the computer lab. Everyone had to come up with a sketch for their "inspired" chair and I was blown away!!!! After class I flipped through each sketchbook and was so impressed with the designs that they came up with. A huge part of this project is to not copy the artwork per se. I wanted the students to think bigger than that and use their own creativity to come up with an original artwork. I cannot wait to see the kids start this project and for the finished results!
