Warhol Pop Art, 3rd Period

Last week, students were introduced to the life, times and art of Andy Warhol.  Using a variety of Photoshop techniques learned in previous weeks, their task was then to replicate Warhol in three categories: Pop object, 4-Square and Portrait.  For their Pop Object, the 3rd period class selected Ms. Sarah Kelly's Clothespin.  For the 4-Square they chose Ms. Briana McTiernan's Apple and for their portrait they chose Ms. Berney Arrogancia's portrait of Rochelle Sison.

Little Toys, 0 Period

The assignment over the long weekend was for students to select an object no taller than 2 feet and take it with them places to photograph.  It was meant to be fun, silly and ridiculous.  There were 4 categories for Photo of the Day.  The Funniest category was won by Ms. Katie Benz and her travelling gnome.  The Best Object category was won by Mr. Jordan Mejia-Prieto and his Lego-sized Harry Potter reading a book of spells.  Most Artistic was won by Ms. Chelby Spray for her photograph of a mini-car in "New York."  Finally, best use of Photoshop went to Mr. Matt Silvestri for his Pikachu Goes to Vegas shot.
