Fourth Grade students looked at artwork by Romero Britto. Britto is an artist from Brazil who currently lives and works in Miami. Students discussed the bright colors and patterns Britto often uses in his artwork, and created their own artwork in this style. Students chose one object to draw and drew it in the center of their paper. Then they broke up the paper into various segments; almost liked stained glass windows. Then students painted using bright colors and patterns. Students had to use repetition to emphasize the pattern in their artwork. Students also learned that Britto's artwork is influenced by Pop art, cubism and graffiti.
