This project turned out to be incredibly fun! Art Alive was a collaborative project where 2D Art students created groups and picked a famous painting to recreate on a 2'x4' luon board. Once they finished the paintings, I cut out the faces of the figures in order to transform these Art Alive paintings into interactive works of art! After the faces were cut out, students sanded them down and did minor touch ups. Next, we had a little Twitter competition to see which pieces would have the honor of being displayed at Weaver's Annual Art Show! We took all of the paintings down to the commons for lunch and asked students to participate in the competition by taking their picture with their favorite paintings and tweeting it out to @wmscats with an #ArtAlive hashtag. This was so cool to watch! Click images below to get a better look! Here's a beautiful dancing ballerina! Once the results were in, it was time to start setting up for the art show! Students helped create signs to advertise and posted them around the building. After many hours of real life Tetris, the art space was ready for guests! We had a great turnout! And I'm so glad guests were getting interactive with the Art Alive! Hey! It's Miss Emmons! Thanks to all who attended and an extra special thanks to Dennis Hoffman and to all of the students who helped out! I had such a great time meeting parents and family to tell them about their rock star kids. Thank you to a great year and here's to many more to come!
