Each student works on an annual self-portrait. The k/1s began painting theirs looking in the mirror and observing shapes, colors and placement of features.
I've been teaching art at Parker since the school's beginning in 1991. Working with students over their kindergarten through eighth grade year becomes a longitudinal study of creative child development. It's inspiring and energizing to be part of the students' amazing growth as artists thoughtful young adults.
