Artist Statement: Henna VanHorn and Molly Schneider
IA Assessments Motivational Poster
18x24 paint and marker on paper
We got our inspiration from the internet on a nice photo with a rock and a ruler. We tweaked the speech bubble a little. We started by outlining everything in black sharpie and then watercolor-painted all of it but the rainbow and the rock. The rock and rainbow were colored with markers. We like that it is a pun and we liked all the colors that we used. We would change the mistake we made with the sky, they are two different colors.
Molly Schneider “ A few of my favorite things”
12x18 chalk on paper, 2017
I have a lot of theatre related things because i love theatre. The two people are me and Henna opening night of lion king. The castle on a cloud is a reference from Les miserables. The stick is from lion king. I have the Disney logo because i love Disney movies. And i have a plane because i travel a lot.
I would redo henna and the plane.
I love the staff and the castle on a cloud and the mask.
Molly Schneider “Tomorrow Comes”
24x24, acrylic on ceiling tile, 2017
My tile is about the final scene in Les Miserables, they are in heaven.
Because i love this musical and i am a huge theatre geek.
I want to persuade people to watch this or listen to it and i wanted to inspire people with the quotes.
I don’t think i would change anything in the painting.
The character featured is one of my favorite characters in this musical, his name is enjolras. I also really love the flag.
Molly Schneider "Music of the Night
I decided to do this because i needed to do something inspired by Phantom Of the Opera.
I would try and redo the mask shape and make the roses more detailed.
My favorite part of the artwork is the music sheet. i like it because it flows.
