"PoP Art" Shoe Sculptures

Recently, I was thinking about some of my favorite art lessons that I have used in the classroom and found these pictures from a basic sculpture class that I taught. The class consisted of students in grades 9-12. The assignment was based on an art history lesson that focused on the art of Claes Oldenburg/Coosje Van Bruggen. After viewing examples of, discussing and writing about their work, the students began to create their own versions of  "Pop Art" shoes using railroad board, markers, paint, pencils,  glue and any other decorative  details, they wanted to include. The students were excited about the finished products.
