High School Art


In past posts I have pointed out that the Fine Arts Department  in the school where I used to teach has an outstanding art department.  Art that is produced by middle and high school students is quite sophisticated as well as creative.  Yesterday I went to a concert by the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra at the new Performing Art Center built for  the school, which is available for use  by the community.   Art work by the students lined the walls, and I was particularly impressed by this painting done by a graduating senior.

  2. I agree. Sometimes our younger counterparts can produce quite imaginative and beautiful works of art. The oldsters, on the other hand, can produce real crap but if a certain name is attached to it, it's automatically considered brilliant. Argh.

  7. Wow! This is very well done. I hope the artist continues and is mentored by someone who can set her or him on a productive course.
