A number of our student artists have had their outstanding artwork recognized recently. Check us out!
First Grader SARAH and Kindergartner KENSLEY have had their artwork selected for display in the Hudsonville School Administration Building at 3886 VanBuren Avenue in Hudsonville.

Second Grader AUBREY has a special honor too – her cool robot has been selected for a special 2010 – 2011 Hudsonville School Board Appreciation event! Her artwork will be professionally framed and presented to a school board member for them to display at their office or home for the 2010-11 school year. Aubrey’s framed artwork will be returned to her at the end of the 2011 school year.

You bet, Cheryl – info is coming your way! For the rest of you – the Van Gogh Starry night focused on visual texture and was a simple sharpie marker drawing project with watercolor added over the sharpie. The “Tree in the Park” project focused on the use of warm colors. We looked at Paul Klee’s “Park near Lucerne” for inspiration. The black lines are done with India Ink, and the color is acrylic – although I’ve used plain tempera paints too with good results.
