Counting Down

Only two weeks until the Art Festival and the unveiling of our collaborative painting!

Art club is forging ahead with our large collaborative project which will be the centerpiece of our upcoming show. The final piece is a mystery to all of the students, but they will not have to wait much longer.

Only a little more than 3 weeks until the show!

Switching Gears

Art club is switching gears in anticipation of our upcoming show at the Palette & Chisel. This year's reception and silent auction will be held on Friday, April 16th.

We have started a larger collaborative piece for the show, which is a bit of a mystery for the students. A collage has been divided into 12 pieces. The students will enlarge each piece on 12"x 12" canvases. Once all the canvases have been completed, they will be assembled into a 3' x 4' painting, revealing the entire image to the students.

This piece in progress looks like Spring to me.

Revisiting faux stained glass

At the request of Isreal Dosie, Art Club is revisiting faux stained glass.

We had a great session this week and have some interesting projects in the works. Check out the beginings below and follow up next week to see how they develop.

Art Club - what's been going on...

Art Club ended 2009 with a fun beading poject. Students made bracelets and necklaces for gifts and for themselves. We could not have done all of this without the leadership of Vicky Trakan. Thanks Vicky!
