These Pollinator drawings…India Ink and Colored Pencil are on display upstairs at Holy Trinity now. 2nd-8th grade examples.

To celebrate the Final Four this weekend I would like you to choose a basketball themed image to draw in your sketchbook this week. Please use a format and choose an image that is interesting to you.

Do your best and have fun!

Nice start to the last quarter…I enjoyed seeing what you would choose to draw.

By special request for this week you have the option of choosing your own subject to draw in your sketchbook. If you all put in a good effort and impress me perhaps we can have this freedom more often. Do your best and have fun!

Pollinators of the World: an exhibit co-sponsored by the LaNana Creek Press, College of Fine Arts & The Arthur Temple College of Forestry and Agriculture   Stephen F. Austin State University, Nacogdoches Texas

Pollinators Of The World is international in scope with commitments from Costa Rica, South Korea, Jamaica, Russia, Czech Republic and more. Our talented Holy Trinity Tigers will be well represented with these pieces. The ultimate goal for this project will be the production of two books , one will be a Fine Press Book produced at Lanana Creek press printed from type and photo-polymer plates. In addition to images the books will have text, poems, and essays that celebrate the important role of pollinators in nature, and for our survival.

I chose three outstanding pieces each from 6th, 7th, and 8th grade art classes at Holy Trinity.

You have a Homework Holiday over the Spring Break week. Enjoy your time off and spend some quality time with friends and family!

For this week I would like you to choose a Black and White image that you would be interested in using as a subject for your first painting on canvas this year.

The canvas will be a square format so you need to crop your image into a square as well. Pick an image that is interesting to you and spend some time with this drawing so that you could sketch it onto your canvas.If you have access to a printer at home or computer lab please print out a copy to bring with you to use in class.  Have fun and do your best!
