8th graders worked with paintings for the assignment below. They could choose an image of anything they wanted. Once they did this, I put the image on my computer and used a computer program called Photoshop to alter the image--to create almost a paint by number look. The main intention of the assignment was color mixing. Students were to choose a color they liked, and by mixing that color with either black or white they created a monochromatic painting. Some chose to do a faded look with the paints in the background--modeled after the painter Mark Rothko (while others didn't--which was OK too). I am so proud of the results!
