A selection of paintings, drawings, and cloth pillow sculptures by 8th graders are featured this week. Several students drew and painted while observing photos of work by established artists. Ramzy Kaoud combined the imagery of two historically important artists. He did pencil and ink drawings of a rooster by Picasso and head studies by Leonardo daVinci. He photographed his drawings and used them in a thought-provoking, surreal, digital artwork which he developed in the Sketchbook app on his iPad.
