I want to thank countless students, teachers and staff for helping to make my 21 years at Monte Vista SO memorable and rewarding. I feel ready to move on to a new chapter in my life so I am retiring from teaching, but my heart is full when I reflect back on the many years that I have spent here and the people who I have met. Wishing everyone the best that life has to offer!
Welcome to the Art Department Website
My name is Devra Brewer and I am looking forward to working with, and getting to know each of you during this 2023-2024 school year! Throughout the semester you will be developing artistic skills at a surprisingly rapid pace. You will be creating artwork using a variety of different art mediums and techniques including chalk pastels, graphite, acrylic paint, watercolor paint, papier-mache, collage and printmaking, among other things. The class is project-based, but you will also be developing your art vocabulary, and your ability to look at and discuss artwork from various cultures and time-periods.
I truly hope that your experience in art class this year will unleash your inner-artist, and cultivate a life long appreciation for the visual arts. Now...let's get to work and create some amazing artwork!
If you have any questions, concerns, or would just like to say hello, please feel free to email me at dbrewer@pleasantvalleysd.org
