That's what this project was all about. The young artist had in mind to create an American flag on a loom using K'Nex. Well...he began using string as the warp and the K'Nex were way too far apart. He unwarped and rewarped with the string very loose. It was a disaster. We conferred and decided that elastic might be the way to go. It worked and worked well. I was very, very proud of this young man for going through the entire artistic process, struggling, and finally succeeding!Dianetag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33802169.post-1164580468308929642006-11-26T15:32:00.000-07:002006-11-26T15:34:28.310-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/1106/nova.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/1106/nova.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>A self-portrait in pencil completed by a very talented young man.Dianetag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33802169.post-1164580334773083932006-11-26T15:30:00.000-07:002006-11-26T15:32:14.773-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/1106/nov8.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/1106/nov8.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>Wood and wire!

We needed something to fill the space in the foyer, prior to beginning our choice projects. The lovely ballerina is from 1st quarter. She was constructed by three talented 8th grade students. There is also a photo of our entry for the scarecrow contest. Art Studio students and Art Club students participated in the construction of the scarecrow.Dianetag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33802169.post-1160751599269882582006-10-13T08:52:00.000-06:002006-10-14T09:38:04.506-06:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/0906/caea1006074.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/0906/caea1006074.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/0906/caea1006024.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/0906/caea1006024.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> I was able to attend the CAEA Conference in Vail, Colorado. The weaving seen here is from a class about Phillipine Banig Weaving presented by Myrna York. The sculpture is an example from the Master Class "Casting and Moldmaking, Found Object and the Figure" presented by Rik Sargent. In the master class, we made a complete mess of a room with concrete mixing, plaster casting, gluing fall leaves on foam body molds and more! It was terrific!Dianetag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33802169.post-1160838434568689442006-10-14T09:03:00.000-06:002006-10-14T09:12:39.306-06:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/1006/IMG_0685.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px;" src="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/1006/IMG_0685.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/1006/IMG_0674.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px;" src="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/1006/IMG_0674.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> The weaving is a compilation of works created by eighth grade students. The assignment was for them to make a list of significant moments in their young lives and then turn those words and phrases into color, line, pattern, and shape. Each piece was then woven into this final work. It is a stunning weaving and we are in the process of hanging it in the foyer at school.Dianetag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33802169.post-1157309770027193762006-09-03T12:55:00.000-06:002006-09-04T09:50:23.060-06:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/0906/artroom125.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px;" src="http://www.leganza.org/artstudio/images/0906/artroom125.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> Welcome to the Mountain Ridge Art Studio site.
