art show and portfolios

I hope you all had a chance to see the art work displayed in our library last week ! Spring Week of Arts was a wonderful time for our students to share their artwork with our Trinity staff, students and parents.

We were also busy last week creating some very special Mother's Day artwork!! Sixth grade created a beautiful bird nest with speckled robin eggs. Seventh grade experimented with watercolor to create a field of tulips. Our last piece is a number painting somewhat inspired by grafitti.

Friday is our last day of class. Your student will be bringing home their artwork beginning Thursday and Friday of this week.
It is always fun to see the student's progress from the beginning of their sketchbook to their final projects. We have covered many art styles, media types, competed in many competitions and discussed various careers in art. I hope your student feels more confident in his / her ability to draw, paint, establish a concept, create a color scheme and appreciate various styles of art in our culture and world.
