An Art Show

My niece (in law) Erin is an art teacher in Baldwin, WI.

Each spring she has a show to display the art work her students have created through the year.

It's a special event that Erin and her assistant put their heart and soul into.

She always invites me and I always try to go.

This year was even better than last year.

Part of what I think is so interesting is the influence of each project is a well known artist, so the kids are learning art history, art appreciation and the skills involved with the project.

Here are a few photos from the show.

Inspiration:  Scream by Artist:  Edward Munch

Great nephew Jake's 'Scream'

I love that a Jr. Kindergarten student did this.

Kimonos

 I loved all the cats.

I'd frame one of these for my house, they were great.

Negative/Positive by great nephew Jackson.

Such an interesting technique.

Art stretches the imagination, that is for sure.

Time Flies When You are Making Art

There were many other projects and I'm looking forward to next year's show.

Well done Erin!

Well done budding artists of Baldwin, WI!
