The annual Parker self-portrait project is underway in several classes. The K/1s observe themselves in a mirror, then draw and add paint to their images.
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.
