Jim Dine

Hi guys! I don't know who or who hasn't been around our building lately, but we're missing half of it! The entire front of the foyer is covered with a giant grey piece of drywall. Our head of school has expressed that something should be done with it and that we should emphasize the theme for the year. The Voice of Wisdom suggested that I look at Jim Dine's artwork and share it with you. This is just a sample. More to come in a few days!

Hi everyone! I just got back from vacation in Myrtle Beach. It was so much fun but really humid! When my family and I went out to eat we happened upon this restaurant with these custom hand done wall paintings. I was struck by them (particularly the line making and brush strokes) so I took a few pictures and thought I'd share.

Summer Stuff

Hey girls! Here's some stuff I've been doing that's ready for your eyes. The first picture is my self portrait that is a joke AND a serious piece that I will explain when the school year starts:) The second picture is me at one of the museums I visited with my family in DC. At this museum I realized I love modern art and want to pursue it more in my work (maybe do some stuff with chicken wire and perhaps foilage? haha perhaps.) I hope you all have been enjoying your summer that is quickly coming to an end.

P.S. I LOVE THAT SONG HOW DID YOU KNOW? I think it is a perfect fit. Inspiring, to say the least.

We need to have a song on this site

I like music and I'm pretty sure you do too. This summer a friend sent me a song that you probably have heard. It has been comforting to me when I have been a little down I thought I would share it with you too.
So click on the link below and you can hear it too. Music is such a gift for all of us if we take the time to listen.

Hi guys! As the summer comes to a close things have finally been coming through. I've completed 3 of my 5 assignments and am steadily progressing in my landscape. My still life seems to be giving me trouble though. I think it's because I'm distracted by an idea. I really enjoyed taking the "interesting photo" (or photos in my case) and want to do another project like it. I've decided what I'm going to do and how I'm going to do it, but I'm still working up the guts to go through with it because its a rather emotional project. In the meantime I've been busy with a whole new kind of art: modeling! It's so much fun and helps me make friends and be creative in a different way. Also, I'm very proud to say that Hairspray sold out every single show! Hope everyone's summer is great and I can't wait to see you soon!
