Local Kids Get Creative

***Newsflash***

Several children at McGrath City recently worked hard on papermache creations at the Van Gogh-n-Dada Art Center . Creative juices began flowing on Tuesday, November 18th when art instructor Devin Martin gathered the students around a pile of newspapers. After spending several minutes deciding what animal/thing could be represented successfully, tape and newspaper began flying back and forth.

Cousins Journee and Jordan fashioned their favorite fictional game characters, respectively "Pikachu" and "Pokemon in Repose". Journee stated that the project was "very fun". Her sister
Quinn was in the "Wall*E" mood and formed a very life-like representation of the main character.

Logan, a local 16 year old, went sci-fi creating "Yoda". When asked for his thoughts on the week, Logan stated enthusiastically "Fun, it was".

Master Art Guru, Devin Martin, said "Recycling paper into fun is my specialty."

Of course, younger children also participated in the project, each working diligently to express themselves.

The course ended on Friday. Students are able to take their creations with them to thier own homes to finish their wonderful projects.

A big thanks to all who participated. For more information, contact your local art center at 555-PAINT.
