“Our amazing young artists are so very proud, as am I, of all of their work,” said teacher Stacey Ramsey.
Kindergarten students worked with plaster cloth and sculpted dinosaur fossils, while grade 1 students created fantastic faces using collage and Eric Carle style painted tissue paper pictures. Grade 2 students explored the work of Georges Seurat and painted pointillist style paintings, and oil Pastels were used in grade 3 to create cave paintings on sandpaper. Students in grades 4 and 5 honed their watercolor skills. Seascape paintings inspired by Winslow Homer were created in grade 5 while grade 4’s muse was fall.
Middle school art ranged from 3D to 2D art and high School art consisted of a wide variety of media from chalk, acrylic, watercolor, clay, and found object.
