P.s. Look at the little fawn that was visiting the courtyard behind the Art room! Cute!

Silent Auction Items!

Here are a few photos of the items up to bid on for the clay fund-raiser (May 26th, 6:00-7:30 @ WMS)!

We have 2 recycled chandeliers made by the students!

They are bright, playful, and good for the environment. They look very Chihuly.

We also have ceramic wall hanging planters up for bid/sale.

(They have not been painted/glazed in the photos.)

I made each planter to house very special tropic air plants called Tillandsias.
The plants are not shown, but will be included with the planter.

Air plants do not grow in soil & only require a dip in water every week and a half. 

Please come and support the WMS art program.

Summer Show & Fundraiser!

The final show is approaching fast!!

Our show for 3rd and 4th quarter students will be on May 26th from 6:00-7:30 at WMS.

A piece from each student will be on display. Come celebrate your student's hard work and talent!!

Our MS Choir will be performing at 7:30 at the High School, so check it out after the Art show.

Art may be taken off the walls at 7:30 and brought home. Please leave me my pins! :)

A silent Auction will be held to help with clay expenses for next year. We have 2 amazing recycled chandeliers (made by the students) up for bid and some wall art/planters (made by me).  Please stop by and put a bid in the containers, you never know what you could get! Watch the blog for photos of these items.

Previous Art Students Need To Pick Up Their Art Tomorrow!! :)

6th grade has finished their projects on Op Art and they are up hanging in the halls. They have started a project on the poem Crazy Hair. They should be done in the next week!

7th grade finished their cubism and Medieval tapestries projects. They have just started a lesson on African masks and the role they play within different tribe's cultures.

8th grade finished a project about color. Students explored how they would explain colors using all the senses except sight. They created poetry and art based on their writing. 8th graders are currently learning about the Chinese New Year and creating large paper dragons like those used during the dragon dance in the Lantern Festival.
