St. Peter Catholic School Art Room

 4th grade students stayed after school to participate in an Art workshop. Students learned about water based paints and how to properly use a soft bristle paintbrush. They created a fall canvas to take home. 

8th grade painting the butterfly sculpture as a class project. When completed this will be placed in the Prayer Garden for everyone to enjoy!  

This year students are able to join Art Club. Since Christmas break, students have been attending Art Club after school for a hour of Free-Choice Art making.  This is a great opportunity to explore new mediums and tools, as well as develop crafting skills. Students enjoy leading their own projects, or working together to create an original work of art. Art Club is a free extra-curricular activity for students run by Ms. Thurman and student volunteers.  Art Club will run through the end of year, and start back up in August, when students return from Summer break.  Check out some of our art below: 

8th grade has begun restoring the Butterfly sculpture that was donated to our Art Room.  Students worked hard plastering cracks and sanding the sculpture. After a few days air drying, students applied two coats of white paint. Now we have a blank "canvas" to create our class design.  We plan on installing our finished Butterfly in the garden for everyone at our school to enjoy.  Check out the process so far!
