Chalk Art Festival 2014

I recently held the annual chalk art festival at the middle school I am lucky enough to teach at. The theme of the year was "Art Parody". My advanced art students were organized into groups of 2-4 students and each group chose a famous painting and created a parody of that painting on a small piece of paper and then used the grid drawing method to create a large version on the pavement on chalk art day. I think that most of them turned out to be absolutely amazing! Enjoy:
