Better late than never. Right?

These are projects my students completed last semester. My Painting and Poetry class completed a HAITI mural (purchased from Kathy Barbro's Art Projects for Kids). Our church has a ministry to Haiti so we use the poster every time we have an information night or bake sale for the Haiti mission.
The high school watercolor students did a barn study. In this study the barns were gridded onto watercolor paper first then completed.
Their final watercolor project was of a subject of their choosing.

Those, I expect, will go well. The third and newest class is acrylic painting with middle schoolers. I will have 8 students, 2 more than I should have taken and we are the last class of the day. I sure hope they have fun and learn something in the process. Let the games begin (or the painting begin...). More later.

Anyway, here's my progress so far.
