Week of Jan 22-25

This week will be quite interesting. Not only were we out for Martin Luther King Jr Day, but we will be out this coming thursday for the Boys All 'A' State Tournament in Frankfort. Three days a work week is alright. However, it doesn't do an art room any good. Day = work. Needless to say, we will be critiquing tuesday and then 'starting' our new assignments. This short week should help Art I with their ceramics project drying.


RHS Art Students can ----->

1- 2D/3D: 'A play on words'. Students are to create a paper mache sculpture of play on words. For example a 'Grandfather Clock' would look like a clock with a beard and cane, etc. Short demo on paper mache will be given.
