Third Grade-Jonathan Callicutt-Americana
I discovered Jonathan Callicutt when reading an art magazine. He is a young, contemporary artist living in Georgia. He uses Americana type images in his work with Baroque over tones. When teaching this lesson I only address the Americana aspects of his art with my students. I am introducing the idea of mixed media to them. We paint, color, print, and collage this artwork. It is powerful!
