Mona Lisa parodies - February/March

 All grade levels participated in this project. We started with a brief history of Leonardo da Vinci and his most famous painting, the Mona Lisa. We also talked about parodies, especially how to change a few things in your artwork to make it humorous and yet still see the inspiration of the original idea (the Mona Lisa). Pictured here are the K/1st grade class and a few examples of their Mona Lisas. 




 Below are photos of the 5th/6th grade class working on their Mona Lisas. Their project was different in that they drew a realistic portrayal of Mona Lisa and changed the background to something different, as if she stepped into a time machine. They did an amazing job!
