Mr Hansen's Art Class

Welcome to the official blog for Mr. Hansen's 7th and 8th Grade Art Classes! I teach at Miscoe Hill Middle School and have taught in the Mendon-Upton School District since 2004, starting my career at Nipmuc High School.

A quick test for 7th grade ramen bowls being made next week! Pinch pot with a small foot, chopstick rest and pattern made with 3D printed clay tools! Can’t wait to see these done, we’re doing the Mishima method. (at Miscoe Hill Middle School)

8th Graders were given a panel from a comic book at random and were given the task of reproducing it on a large scale! They used construction paper, sharpies and markers in order to try to match the shapes, colors and lines of the original comic. They were introduced to artist Roy Lichtenstein and shown his artwork from his most famous period as inspiration. #MURSD #miscoe #miscoehill #maea #artsed #arted #arteducation #artteacher #middleschoolart #roylichtenstein #comicbook #comicbookpanels #cutpaper (at Miscoe Hill Middle School)
