 * Student looked at two local artists work to discuss: abstract vs. realistic works of art. Students were asked which they preferred and why. Debate dialogue on both forms allowed student to expand their original conceptions of these art forms.**


 * A realistic project of form, color and light using pastels and simple shapes to show form provided skill building in blending and shading to show form and volume.**


 * Students are now working on a multi-media work that involves symbolism, mask making and use our computer to manipulation their own personal images.**
