Thanks to everyone who attended this year's Art Show. Your continued support reinforces the importance of arts in everyone's life.

  • This year’s work included clay food inspired by artist Claes Oldenburg which was created by grade 5.  
  • Inspired by the big Matisse show at the Museum of Fine Arts students in grade 2 did their own version of one of two Matisse masterpieces using oil crayons making sure to incorporate objects and patterns.
  • In grade 3, students used their knowledge of contrast, scale and perspective to create beautiful compositions of colorful flying watercolor butterflies on black and white backgrounds.
  • Artist Jasper John’s paintings of letters were the inspiration for the painted negative space initials paintings by K1.
  • After sculpting life-like mice, 4th grade used recycled materials to construct little rooms for the mice to inhabit.
  • Before students painted self-portraits in K2 they used mirrors to carefully observe themselves.
  • Fluorescent paint circles stamped on black paper provided an outer space background for their collaged paper spaceships.
  • Pre-school students were assisted by grade 6 students in creating digital puppets on iPads. 
  • After designing illuminations of their initials 6th graders tried metalworking to create a low relief Repoussé.
All art work displayed in the art show will be available for on-line viewing later this week at Artsonia.com.

    ​Being an art teacher is one of the greatest jobs in the world. Where else do you get to be with great kids and basically have fun all day long? Okay, there is work involved. To be an artist you must learn the language of art. Just like we learn the alphabet and put those letters together to form words and sentences before we can read books we need to learn the elements of art to help us to become lifelong  artists.
