Developing Portraits
ITC STUDENT ARTISTS CREATED THESE BEAUTIFUL, UNIQUE PORTRAITS! Students had the task of creating their first one using the medium of collage to create these fun, abstract designs. The second task was to create their portrait using the grid method where student began with a 9inch by 9inch photo and had to grid the photo and enlarge their drawing so it was double the size! Here are some student samples. So proud of my ITC ARTISTS!!!!






Fun Night at ITC
The Art department and Spanish department teamed up on fun night to create piƱatas with students. This was a simple make and take art project for the students and they had a blast making them! ITC artists were so creative with their ideas! I am so proud to be a part of a wonderful school community!

A Review in Perspective
ITC artists reviewed drawing in perspective. Students used a vanishing point to create the illusion of 3 dimensions. Students were inspired by OP ART artists and used contrasting vibrant colors to add interest.

Pastel Still Life Drawings
ITC artists created these beautiful still life drawings using M&M's and jellybeans. Students were to observe the objects and create a drawing that displays value and form, including a light source and shadows. Students enjoyed transforming their 2dimensional shapes into 3 dimensional forms. This was he first time that many of these students worked with soft pastels. Great job Eagles!
