HS Advanced Art - Painted/Decorated Shoes

At the beginning of the school year I had planned to have our advanced high school art class participate in the VANS Custom Culture Shoe Design Contest. However, sadly our school didn't qualify to participate. The students were enthusiastic about the idea though and wanted to still design and paint their own pair of shoes so here is our display of masterpiece footwear. They'll be stepping out in style. Don't you think?

MS Art - Still Life Media Sampler

By Abigail A.

Students in Middle School Art recently completed a still life project. After drawing their still life scene they divided their composition into at least 5 areas and then colored each area with either different patterns and/or different kinds of art media (pencil, pastels, paint, collage, colored pencils, markers, etc). Have fun perusing our still life gallery!

HS Art 1 - Trompe L'Oeil

By Kyler M.

Art 1 students recently learned about Trompe L'Oeil which is a style of art that is intended to create the illusion of a 3 dimensional object or scene. Trompe L'Oeil means "Deceive, or fool, the eye". We looked at different kinds of Trompe L'Oeil and then they had to draw 6 objects with shading and color to make them look as 3-D as possible. Here are their drawings. Do they fool you? :-D (Click on each photo to see more closely.)
