My most recent school visit with the TREX program was to St. Patrick's Fine Arts Elementary in Lethbridge. The Grades 1s,2s & 3s took to working with construction paper to emulate the style and technique of the "Direction(s)" exhibit that was on display in their hallways. After a brief presentation on colour theory, my artistic influences and a Q & A with the kids, they were very enthusiastic to get started on their own abstractions! The results speak for themselves...
Grades 1, 2 & 3 students created some non-objective works of Art using coloured construction paper. The black background is meant to simulate a loose 'drip' grid-work, stained glass or mosaic look.

I recently had the opportunity to work with grades 4,5 and 6 students at St. Patrick's Fine Arts elementary school in Lethbridge. After a short slide presentation, a viewing of the "Direction(s)" exhibit and a brief lesson on colour theory, the students took to making their own 'drip-drive' creations. The results were nothing less than exceptional!
