Selections for the Week of 6/20/2011

Spotlight on Admiral Farragut Academy,
St. Petersburg

The paintings below were done in acrylic paint for a unit on impressionism. I had the students choose an animal and told them that they were not allowed to use the actual animal's colors: they needed to adjust the color scheme in some way. Each piece is 16 x 20 inches.
