Happy Valentines Day!!

Happy Valentines day from our wonderful preschool class.

Knights in Shining Armor

Our third grade class has finished their armor helmets and now they are ready to be "Knights for Christ". We had fun placing symbols of our faith onto the helmets using liquid glue. After the glue dried we painted with silver, metallic paint and it really looks like armor!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Fun with Paint

Our second and third graders are having fun creating fall tree paintings without any paint brushes. It was a challenge, but the results were beautiful and a great time was had by all.

Back Into The Swing of Things

Everyone at St. Helen School is back in the swing of things. In the art room we  are all working on projects using "Nature" as our theme. Our wonderful 4th graders have been creating silhouettes our of leaves and plants. They are turning out beautifully. We sure do have some talented kids here!!

Summer Is Here!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful summer.

Don't forget about art camp:
Grades 5-8 runs from June 25-29 from 9am - 12pm
Grades 1-4 runs from July 2-6 (we don't have camp on the 4th) from 9am - 12pm

Be Safe and don't forget to take some time to CREATE SOMETHING!
God Bless You All!
                 

Andy Warhol Self-Portraits

Our wonderful eighth grade class is getting ready to graduate and move on to high school. We will miss them!!! But.......there is ONE more project we have to do, self-portraits!! Each student took a picture of some one in the class. The pictures were then downloaded onto a computer and edited in Photoshop. The pictures were then printed out onto white paper. The picture was then put on to a copy machine and the image was copied onto a transparency. Each student painted the back of the transparency using different colors for the hair, face and background. The end product looks like an Andy Warhol portrait. We will have these portraits hanging up in the hall. Congratulations class of 2012!
