Art Supplies for Spring 2021

 

Art 2 students--start collecting empty cardboard tubes from inside toilet paper and paper towel rolls.  You need at least 8 toilet paper tubes OR 4 paper towel tubes. Also be on the look out--you need 1 12x12 inch piece of cardboard (keep your eye out for cardboard from a box for this).

KGMS Art will be providing Art 1 students with project paper, watercolor set/brush, and oil pastels.  Details about picking up materials will be forthcoming (February).

KGMS Art will be providing Art 2 students with a project kit including printmaking materials, scratch art materials, project paper, and metal tooling.  Details about picking up materials will be forthcoming (February).

I am aware many students have several other art materials around the house--I will give the option of choosing materials on as many projects as I have to accomodate what you have.  

A further note regarding materials:

Dear Parents, Guardians, and Students,

Art materials can be expensive and I understand if you can’t afford the suggested materials.  PLEASE let me know at hfallon@kgcs.k12.va.us if you can not minimally provide paper (if you can’t get the sketchbook, honestly any type of paper will do--printer paper, notebook paper, junk mail envelopes, cardboard (such as delivery boxes, the inside of a cereal/granola bar/frozen meal box) and regular #2 pencils.  I can modify any project to suit the materials you have on hand or set up a pick up for you to get your student what they need!!

Thanks, Mrs. Fallon

Important!! Art is a semester long course!! Please double check what semester you have art.

It has come to my attention that some of you may be confused about what semester you have art. Art is a SEMESTER long course. Most students will have a class period where you have 2 2nd periods, or 2 4th periods, or 2 5th periods, or 2 6th periods listed on your schedule. Your art class will happen in the semester the order shows. For example if art is listed first then drama is listed second, you will have art 1st semester and drama 2nd semester. If drama is listed first and art is listed second, you will have drama first semester and art second semester. Please see the slide show for clarification. Email me if your are still uncertain. hfallon@kgcs.k12.va.us

Art Supplies for Spring 2021!!!

Here is some updated information regarding supply lists.  Please excuse me for not introducing myself in the first video!  I am Mrs. Fallon, your art teacher.  And I was nervously creating my first screencast video. I am so excited to be teaching you this year and plan to use ALL the new technology at my disposal to bring you the best virtual art class possible!!!

Such a shock!!

I am in total shock!! I'm still processing and can hardly bring myself to believe the most recent turn of events.  I was honored to teach you all art this past 9 weeks, and I am so sad we didn't get to finish out the year in the art room together.  You all wowed me with your exceptional artwork and incredible motivation.  I am so sad that we didn't get the opportunity to finish the clay projects.  The kiln is loaded full of projects awaiting firing.  I am not sure when I will be allowed back to get it done.  I will post a google slide show of some of your artworks I took pictures of before school was closed.  I am not sure how we can get your artwork back to you/when it will be safe to do so but it is my sincere hope that we will be able to do so.  I will post some art review suggestions, links and videos that I personally enjoy while I wait for further instructions.  I hope you will continue making art.
