" In spite of everything I shall rise again: I will take up my pencil, which I have forsaken in my great discouragement, 
and I will go on with my drawing."

1st graders  combine simple lines & shapes to form complex images,
and then experiment with different ways to apply color.

Winter Mural



 
This collaborative project involved many hands: houses were collaged by kindergarteners, people were illustrated by 1st & 2nd graders, and abstract 
sky panels were painted by 5th graders.










Inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's "Starry Night" and 
Seurat's "A Sunday on the Ile de La Grande Jatte"
our mural features a low horizon line
illusion of depth, and figures in profile.
