Oct 2025: Frida Kahlo-Inspired Still Life with Ms. Tricia

We studied Frida Kahlo and her art.  We talked about the shapes of fruit, foreground and background.  We used texture rollers to apply tempura paint and oil pastels to create a colorful still life.  Most students used fruit templates that I made for them to trace and used adaptive scissors to cut the fruit out.  The fruit was added with glue and pastels were encouraged to add outlines, highlights and more layers.
