Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

This innovative arts projects seeks to give students a pop culture take on creating form in two dimensions and three dimensions. Giving students the relevance and fun of pop art movie icons to observe and draw and color in 2D and also to form in 3D.

Students will use pop art movie icons as models they can observe to draw and form into 3D sculptures.

Students will keenly observe statutes and read about iconic movie creatures and draw and sculpt, incorporating the elements of form and space into their art.
