Student of the Week — 03/05/12

Jonathan, age 8  view his artwork 

Class:  Intro to Drawing

“I have been doing art at Museo for at least two years. I love my Intro to Drawing class because it is so fun. I feel good about my Celtic Spiral, I used colors that would stand out. I really enjoy drawing dogs.”  ~Jonathan
 
I have been working with Jonathan for more than a couple of years now. He is a delightful young man, who always applies himself
fully to the task at hand, showing great imagination and skill. He is fun, as well as very respectful of his teacher and fellow students.  I picked his Celtic Spiral because of it’s intense detail and symmetry. The way he designed the frame shows how his skills are continuously growing and developing. This is a beautiful work, truly representative of how I hoped the project would turn out. It was an inspiration to other students doing the project.

Pascal, age 17  view her artwork 

Class:  Manga

Pascal has such a distinctive style that shows up every week in whatever prompt we happen to be working from. The thought she puts in to each piece shows in her careful linework and character design. Every major project in the class has brought something beautiful and surprising from whatever media Pascal is working with. She describes herself as more comfortable in front of a computer, but she creates just as easily with graphite or Copic markers.
