Middle school and upper school art students have their artwork on display in the main hallway and stairwell. The work, including still life and perspective drawing with graphite pencils, uses shading, the horizon line, and color gradients. The work, created by art students in Ms. Stephens’ 7th grade and Art I classes, includes figures ranging from computer screens to plants, and even images as viewed from a rear-view mirror. By studying and mastering shading and perspective, students are able to recreate a wide variety of images and give their pictures a sense of texture and context. The following 7th grade students earned the Most Creative Artist award for their drawings: Ruby Fanning, Elliot D’Alessandro, Young Pal Stallings, Kofi McFadgion, Aoife Butler, Nalla Diallo, Benjamin Southworth, Miles Pulford, Dasiy Hand, Wyatt Grimm, Juliette Warga, and Caroline Watterson.
