What's Going On
In The Art Room?

Virtual Art Club

Hello!!!

I've missed all of you fellow artists! I have been using my extra time inside to work on lots of art! How about you?

This Virtual Art Club is a place for you to find fun art making ideas and to share what you create during this time. You can make anything you want but if you need some inspiration, try one of the activities below. You can join our weekly "Make Art with Ms. B" Meet sessions every Thursday from 3:15-3:45 (Istanbul Time) to connect with other artists and share what you have been making! Anyone is welcome! 

​Be sure to email me your creations so I can add it to this page! blundona@mefis.k12.tr

​Rainbows in Windows

Create a rainbow and put it in your window to brighten the day of someone walking by. This is a way artists are connecting to each other during this challenging time. 

Youth with Refugees Art Contest

This is why UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency is launching a global youth art contest!
Anyone aged 12 to 25 can take part. All you need to do is draw a picture or a comic strip to show your solidarity with refugees amid the Covid-19 pandemic, and illustrate the message that everyone counts, including refugees, in the fight against the virus.
The best creations will be ANIMATED by a Japanese animation studio and shared with our 8 million followers. You will also receive a special prize and a Certificate of Participation from UNHCR.

Teacher Thank You

Shhhhhhh . . . This is a surprise. Are you missing school? Maybe missing your teacher's a bit? Well we sure are missing you! Let's send your teachers a special note like the one below. Go to this Google Doc and sign up to create a word. Make a beautiful drawing of this word and then photograph yourself with it (these photos will only be shared with teachers). Send me your photograph and I will put it together!

Artwork Recreation Challenge

The Getty Museum has challenged you to recreate a work of art. Have a look at some of the examples then try it for yourself. Find a painting you like. Figure out how you can recreate it as exact as you can or do a modern twist to it. Plan what you need to do, gather your materials, recreate the painting, and have a family member take a photo of you. Use your iPad and put the original painting beside your recreation.

Paper Shapes

If you have your own printer at home you can try building a 3D shape out of paper using these templates. Suggestion: draw on the design before cutting it out to make yours unique!

Help Google Learn Drawings

You have 20 seconds to draw the item while google tries to guess what it is. How many can you get?

Shadow Doodles

Set up a lamp or a flashlight and put an object on a white piece of paper. Then turn the shadow into something. 

Create Your Own "I Spy"

Are you familiar with the I Spy books? They are made of photographs showing hundreds of small objects. Each photograph has a list of objects that you need to find within the picture. Watch the video below for a cool behind-the-scenes look at how they are made. Then create your own by collecting lots of small objects from your home, arranging them in an interesting way, and photographing them. Then make a list of tricky objects for people to find. 

Sketchbook Revival

Ms. Blundon has been loving these free workshops that are from a variety of different artists. They are available until April 26th. Try one or all of them out!
