Digital Art for Teachers

Teachers are uniting to share lesson plans, hardware, and software resources; answer questions. Just getting started or been there for years, we can all be of service:

and I will post them on our website.

The following images were created with Photoshop,
children ages 6-10.

However, technology can only challenge the direction of art, not the existence of the artist. Technology needs the artists to give life to data, and art educators need to help fill the need for digital artists.Digital art experiences can start with the first school exposure to the computer.

About these Pictures

I included these examples to demonstrate that no matter how complicated the software is our children are up for the challenge.
This Lesson is an introduction to Adobe Photoshop . In these examples students learned various paint tools, selections, masks, filters, etc., while they were creating an Outer Space picture. These pictures are the work of elementary students grades 1-3. The lessons that follow are more practical for beginning computer art programs since they utlize digital drawing programs that most school may already own.
