The End of the Year Art Post

Yesterday, the kids finished their very last art class of the year! They have produced some wonderful art this year, and I just had to put them up for all to see! They had art class with the Ross boys, Davin and Phillip. What fun it was - we picked them up and dropped them off each week, and after most art classes we had a little tradition of going to the country store for ice cream. (Double scoop the weeks they came home with a project)





Phillip, Hannah, Davin and Jacob



This is Jacob doing his print-making, the last thing they worked on for this year.


This is Mrs. Lebo - the talented and brave art teacher! She taught the kids in the basement of her home.



Hannah displaying her print making project - a turtle. So much detail went into these pieces, they had to first draw the picture, transfer it onto rubber, and then carve each detail out of the rubber, and then run ink over it and print.




Jacob's snake print has INCREDIBLE detail to it - it took him literally weeks to carve out each detail in the rubber pad.




This is a barn that Hannah painted during their oil painting segment.

This mask was the first project of the year - again, it took many weeks to complete the paper mache, the drawing and then the painting.
