A pioneer Of Modern Art- Georgia O'Keefe
"When you take a flower in your hand
and really look at it,
it's your world for the moment.
I want to give that world to someone else."

Students Experienced:

- Working on creating art in Georgia O'Keeffe's style

My students with the help of our lovely & talented art teacher used paper plates to create their flower designs.
Some students decided to paint their flower designs on large paper.
This was such an easy enjoyable lesson.
