This week in AP Art 2-D Design students examined the idea of hiding emotions. To visually express this idea through a photography project, students used a classmate as a model and took two pictures of the model showing two contrasting emotions. Then, they used photo editing apps to represent the true emotion (or hidden emotion) with a transparent figure layered into the other photo. The students did a great job!

We are so impressed with the candle projects by our craft and pottery students. This two month project started with making pinch pots from clay then adding the underglaze and finishing with "sgraffito" carving technique to add designs to the candles. The longest part of the process was firing each pot in the kiln, applying clear glaze and refiring. Finally, students assembled the candle wick, wax and added a scent. Voìla! Their very own candles!
