Dear Artists, for you:
Do you remember this artist? Hints: He is from Brazil. He combines elements of pop art, cubism and graffiti in his work. He uses bright colors and patterns. His art expresses hope, dreams and happiness.
Send your guess to: katherine.piquette@swsaints.org
***Three cheers for Andrew and Liam King who guessed the artist is ROMERO BRITTO
In honor of dear Tomie dePaola, writer, illustrator, children's book author.
Strega Nona, as read and delightfully presented by actress, Mary Steenburgen.
Fun and Interesting things to check out.
One of my favorite artists, Jen Stark, has put some really cool free coloring pages on her website for you to print.
Look through her fabulous op art, sculpture, and animation from paper and other super cool things. 8th Grade, remember when I showed you her work???
The coloring pages are in the news part of the menu but for sure look at her work.
