My Students

My students are highly creative and interested in making art. They are really looking forward to working a variety of material. My students are motivated by projects that have a tie to real world ideas, and enjoy working as a team, as well as individually.

The students are lively, energetic, interested in new topics and materials, and resilient.

Many of them are dually interested in sports, school and art, making the group a dynamic class to teach.

As the students' interest in art and knowledge-base widens they are taking art more seriously and understanding how this subject can open up possibilities to their futures. I would like to provide more special materials to equal this enthusiasm.

My Project

Our location has a connection with Dale Chihuly and his artwork, some of which is at our local art museum. This link would be an excellent cultural tie for my students to see examples of his work, especially in their own city, and learn about his artistic process and glass making. After our Chihuly research, with these requested materials, students can have the opportunity to not only use clay, but see that clay can be manipulated and painted with inspiration from Chihuly's work. The clay has a translucent quality like the delicate glass Chihuly uses for his sculptures. All of these special details will really make the art world and the ability to create come alive to them.
