I am in the best art department ever! I was lucky to get a professional development day to visit ArtPrize to get some new ideas for the classroom. There was a LOT to see! Simply amazing!
I loved how beautifully done this piece was. It felt calming looking at it.
Graffiti and trash artists.
Love the trash bird! You can own it for the small price of 2,499.99! ...it wouldn't fit in my house.
Murals are wonderful.
This was an artist outside of the B.O.B. creating copper bowls for all to see. He has just finished hammering the shape and he is now setting it with a torch.
This eagle was made completely from silverware! Look close and you will see the forks in the head.
TOP TEN: This piece moved around to music and looked like birds flying through the museum.
Our presidents.
In the B.O.B. the dad's that created the "Light the Night" lanterns were there!
What a neat technique. The artist said they used acrylic, water and oil....I may have to try this.
