Advanced art students
draw
the middle school cupola
The students in
Miss Ochs' advanced art class were inspired to draw
the middle school cupola. Thanks to the beautiful
fall weather, the students were able to create their
artwork while closely observing the cupola in
person.
Viewing the cupola
each school day enabled the art students to capture
a strong likeness of the structure and create their
own backgrounds to enhance their drawing.
The advanced
artists are Sarah Krasinski, Nadya Dimitrova, Emily
Swanson, Olivia Mongilia, Sarah Walker, Kate Skyer,
Alexandria Plocharczyk, Julia Obregon, Sarah
Robinson, Jimmy Hawkins, Raquel Phillips and Rachel
Tomapat.
