My rockstars in 4th period art showcased our #OneYMS cornerstone of #responsibility and got to create a stencil and spray paint!! We used a song as our inspiration and painted with acrylic on wooden canvases. We had so much fun today! #middleschoolart #arteducation #arted

Putting our watercolor techniques to use! Ss started 2 paintings- Origami Animals and Pop Art Pop Cans! I am loving the variety of styles, personal touches, and creativity! While we wait for the layers of one to dry, we jump right into the other! #OneYMS #Arted #watercolor
