1ST GRADE: KEITH HARING FIGURES

Students learned about PA artist Keith Haring. Keith Haring began as a graffiti artist in the subway stations of NYC. He created colorful figures in motion!

Students chose a pose and began the sketch on their
 paper.

To make our figures bold we used fluorescent paint! We began by painting the inside of the figure. Students practiced holding and using the paint brush the best way to ensure a neat painting.










After students painted in the figure, they outlined their figure with black paint and added some action lines.
