Splashes of ink sputter across the page in one class, while flashes of light blink in another. Bodies huddle around a flickering screen collaboratively animating drawings in sand and charcoal in a third class, amazed as their work comes to life on screen. Students in all art classes are starting to learn the basics of their chosen media for each discipline. Enthusiasm is high along with a bit of artistic fear; what if I mess up? what if it doesn't look good?, Words of encouragement help students push forward through the web of doubts.
Artistic superheroes are being born. I see the roots of future Scholastic Arts competition entries and maybe even some AP portfolio 5s! For now though we focus on the basics. How do I draw? What is animation? How does the camera work? How do I blend that color with acrylics? Masterpieces will come later. For now here are the beginnings. Enjoy these early endeavors!
