10th grade Studio Art students working on realistic hand drawings

The 10th grade studio art class have been spending time looking at proportion and value to make "larger than life" drawings of their hand. Students have been learning about the art work of famous Surrealist Rene Magritte and will incorporate their realistic hand drawing with a surrealistic background. Pictures - with a few of students working on independent projects.

Paper Masks

The 10th Grade Studio Art Class has been working on paper mache masks.
Students have spent a great deal of time planning and executing these wonderful sculptures. It is a fascinating process to watch newspaper, water, flour, glue and paint turn into such wonderful works of art. - (Click on the photos for bigger pictures)
