On Friday, October 6, from 5:00 to 8:00PM, fourteen artworks by SPCS 8th graders were on display in the store front of the Sarah Weir Group realty agency during the Downtown Greenville ArtWalk. Mr. Bell selected 14 from among many beautiful Stations of the Cross drawings that our 8th graders have recently completed.
The Stations of the Cross is a series of images depicting Jesus Christ on the day of his crucifixion and the accompanying prayers. Eighth graders used the grid method to make free-hand pencil drawings of illustrations by contemporary artist Shari Van Vranken of the fourteen Stations of the Cross. When finished with their drawings, students colored and edited photos of their drawings using the Sketchbook graphic design app on their iPads.
The following students’ work was selected for the ArtWalk:
Jules Bowling, Raffy Balanay, Abby Flowers, Valdemar Garcia-Nava, Nick Coggins, Victoria Castillo, Carter Davenport, Alicia Baumgartner, Thomas Stroud, Nathan Wright, Marshall Wingfield, Stelling Harris, Brooke Owens, and Claire McDonald.
Below are photos from the exhibition.
