Stained Glass-inspired Watercolors

In Art class, third and fourth mixed-grade homerooms looked at the art of Louis Comfort Tiffany, an artist known best for his work in stained glass, especially his lamps.

Tiffany loved the lower quality of glass from the bottling industry, full of bubbles and impurities.

  These impurities led to a naturalism in his stained glass, full of more varied shades and tints. 

 One major focus of this project inspired by Tiffany's stained glass was to create a variety of tints and shades of at least one color.  Click here to read more about this project, and see more examples of student work, on Mrs. Elliott's Art Room blog.
