I've posted a few examples below of a Middle Art classes American Gothic Parody project. These pop up here and there all over the country and seem to be popular with the kids and the teachers. In years gone by this might have been done freehand, or perhaps with a copy of the original on which they pasted new heads cut from magazines. But now that we're in the digital age, Art students are learning to make digital art. The youngest example I've seen so far is Miss Lindhorst's 5th grade class in West Branch, Iowa (where else?). They did a Photoshop American Gothic Parody Project in 2011. It shows some great imagination. Have you or your kids on anyone else you know ever had an American Gothic related art project while in school? I'd love to hear the details. Also, please share links to any other school A.G. projects so we can all share!

    My name is George and I'm a long time fan of American Gothic parodies. I started a fan site 20 years ago and through that page I met other collectors, made a few friends and made a few trades.
    Then things happened that forced me to abandon the site for many years. Well now I'm back and I'm hoping to reconnect with old friends, find new fans and maybe even create a few new Gothic-o-philes.
