Dani Johnosn Grade 12
Dani is currently a member of Mrs. Schaefer's Senior Art Class. She was selected as November artist of the month for many reasons. She has proved to be a very dedicated and hard working student this semester. Her work ethic, attitude, and dedication to her pieces is very admirable. Something that I was very surprised by, is the fact that Dani hasn't had an art class since middle school! To see her abilities and talents shine through after many years of not being in an art class is such a joy!
Dani loves to sing and draw, and she admits that painting is growing on her too. She loves to shoot and edit short films, and she hopes to work on a major film someday. She wants drawing to always be a part of her regular routine.
We are very proud of you in the art department Dani! You are a great role model for others, and have shown how to balance a lot going on in life at one time, and still prioritize what makes you feel happy within. Keep up the awesome work!
