Hello, welcome to my blog. This website is for you to show your artrwork and writing to all lovers of this nature. Of course, only show your work if you want to.  I don't want to push anything on you but, I would like to see your work. I will show you my art and writing. Some of it is very light so it might be hard to see but I will show it anyway. Thank you all for visiting this sight and I hope you will comment on all of the pieces.

Welcome back, Students and Parents!   It's 2010 and we've begun our second semester at HSC.  Our first week of the semester wasn't very  art-productive .  We mainly got to know each other, and discussed guidelines for classroom behavior,  with a little bit of art-making on the side. REAL art begins in the coming week (the final week of January), so be sure to check back here before your first February class to find out what the web challenge holds! I'll also have photos of artworks created by students between January 26th and 28th. If you've been here before, you know the drill! If not, please go ahead and browse our virtual classroom to see what we did last semester :)

Once again, the Art Show was something to see! Every square inch of every available table was covered (and there were a LOT of tables!). Students in every art class submitted at least one piece, and many had two or more on display. The works featured here are from  Drawing & Painting , Mixed Media , and Explorations in Art I and II Today was a bit hectic: Students worked furiously to finish existing works in progress . . . . . . and many Mixed Media artists started AND finished "found object" sculptures during today's class, from materials they've been gathering the past 6 weeks! Miss April's Drama and Creative Movement students put on quite a show  (Hollywood will likely be in touch with a few!) And Mr. Callahan's Music student's  entertained us with songs. Cooking students worked all morning making delicious  hors d'ouvres and crudite platters. Miss Becky's Science and Jewelry students also displayed an impressive variety of works. Th

Hello Class, This blog is used as a way for you to stay up-to-date on what is going on in my class. If you've missed school or if you have questions about an assignment or project this site is intended to help you. The title of your class will always appear within the content of the posting. Look under your class for instruction regarding that weeks lessons and assignment. Have a great semester! Foundations of Drawing: This week we introduced you to two basic elements of art: line and value . We discussed how line, more specifically the stroke of a line, is used as the basic structure for a drawing. Stroke refers to the weight of the line that gives variance (or difference) to the structure of a drawing . Differences of stroke can give a drawing a sense of texture, expression or the illusion of three-dimensions if used correctly. Value is the relationship between light and dark . Many students think of shading when they think of value but shading is just one way of showing the rel

The LSW Art Department would like to thank every student who participated in the work submission for the Lee's Summit Fine Art Challenge . We had over 140 works submitted and the juror, Jim Smith (MCC-Longview Fine Arts Dept. Head) had a very hard time deciding what to include. Approximately half of those works submitted made it into the exhibition and we want to congratulate those students. We also want to thank our partners at Longview Cultural Arts Center for giving our talented students an opportunity to show in such a wonderful space. We greatly appreciate Jim Smith for his participation as well as Dan Reneau, Director and Curator of the Longview Cultural Arts Gallery, for spear-heading the organization of this event. YOU'RE INVITED TO THE EXHIBITION! We would also like to invite you, your family and your community to join us January 22 for the Opening Reception & Awards Ceremony . There will be food, drinks and lots of conversation about art. There will also be prize

Today was a fun-packed and entertaining day, but it was also a bit sad, because we all had to say farewell to Madison and Kyler, who are moving to South Africa.  Maddie and Kyler, we will miss you! Every student and teacher at HSC signed a huge going-away card for the two, keeping it a secret until lunch time when the card was presented. There is a very nice and well written article about the siblings in the latest issue of  HSC News .  Be sure to check it out! Today's images are from the Open House, where we had a great turnout! Once again, we had live performances of music and acting, and lots of art on display. As with yesterday's show, the art featured here is from Ceramics I and II ,  Explorations in Art I and II , And Art from Paper ! Ceramics II students helped to set up the table display, and students in the other art classes chose "the perfect spot" on the wall for their 2-dimensional work.  Great job, everyone! Young chefs in the culinary arts class (a.k.a.

Can you believe that this week marks  the end of the first semester ?  It sure went by quickly! Because of the amount of work generated this semester, and because each day has their own open house and art show, I thought it appropriate to give each day their own posting here. This is just a small sampling of the work done in class. Remember that most of it has been taken home over that past several weeks :) Students have been working hard all semester, creating beautiful and unique works of art .  Today I asked each young artist to pick a good spot in the classroom to display their art. Each work was appropriately labeled with the artist's name, title, and medium. While 2-dimensional works covered most of one wall,  the 3-D works were displayed in the center of the room.  The artwork represented in today's posting comes from a variety of classes:  Explorations in Art (I and II),  Art from Paper ,  . . . And Ceramics I and II . Our Open House began with musical performances by

This past week students in every class began preparations for the end of the semester, and for Art Show entries. Remember that the  Art Show is this coming week , so if I've asked you to bring something in for the show, please do! The images here are from our final December 2009 classes.  In each class, each day, we created  art from recycled materials! The beautiful "tondo" works featured in today's post were created from junk mail CDs . Students worked hard to create these gorgeous little works of art. The shiny side was left as is, so that it can reflect light!  Just imagine how beautiful these look,  catching and bouncing light around students' homes!  Great work, Everyone! And speaking of great work . . . it's time to announce the winners of the 1st semester web challenges. I'd planned to hand out 1st and 2nd place prizes for each day (Tuesday through Thursday, which is 6 prizes total), but only the Tuesday and Wednesday students chose to participate
