March 12, 2009

The Profile Project continues to excite and astound with all the various 'wet' media employed by the students, one of whom got out the ink roller and began furiously rolling out fuchsia paint; another got a hold of one and used the day-glow orange, then used its edge to create swirling lines. The green glitter resurfaced, and a student added it to one of her 'Jackson Pollock-like' profile/paintings/collages...

"This is my favorite project" is a phrase that echoes across the room. Alas, paint, ink, and watercolors are a fave among the students. Still, Ms. Sapelly is glad that they worked up to this point using collage, tracing, drawing, and other dry media...she doesn't think they would have embraced the paint as much if they used it in the very beginning...

She is thankful for one more week to work with them.
