Kittens, finally.

After lecturing the Art Foundations I class about not adding kittens to their designs (kind of an inside joke) we celebrated a great semester with kitten therapy on the last day of class.

Art Club mask sale

Art Club recently spent an afternoon creating fun masks that were sold over the noon hours in Toner. As predicted, the Spiderman mask was the first one to sell...

 

Apple Fest!

Art Club braved the cold and clouds last Sunday to bring their face painting skills back to the Apple Fest, an annual celebration of Polish culture and history at the Polish Museum in Winona.

Veteran Lauren Graf helped Monika Patel learn the ropes. Thanks to both of them for their contribution to the community!

Just can't get inside today...

The outdoor portable drawing boards and stools got a lot of use today. Many art classes were taking advantage of the great weather.

This class worked on drawing Heffron Hall in the shade of a few trees on the green.

Art outdoors

They are rare, but the opportunity to go outdoors with drawing pad on a beautiful fall day is pretty nice. Here the Foundations I students are drawing architecture using 2 point perspective.
