  • Lauren Plonski, grade 12, "Afraid of the Light," colored pencil & graphite, 14x11 in. This piece combines the artist's knowledge of anatomy with her surreal imagination. Layer 1 consists of a thorough anatomical study of the human skull and ribcage. When adding the second layer of work on the duralar, the piece comes alive with technicolor skulls, shapes, and bubbles juxtaposed with a quickly melting candle sitting on the crown of the original skull reminding the viewer of mortality once the initial excitement over the bright colors and shapes gives way to symbols of lost time and death.

  • Molly Cragan, grade 6, "Trees," watercolor, 16x12 in. Creating distance in watercolor through the application of layers was the idea behind watercolor use. Molly waited for some layers to dry before applying new color. Here, we see distance in Molly's work as the background appears misty which is very realistic and almost looks photographic.

  • Rachel Parry, grade 11, "Flaming Fist of Anger," ceramics, 7x4x5 in. The process of creating a ceramic sculpture can be tricky. Not only does the artist have to have strong technical knowledge to make a sculpture look appealing and physically balanced, but much is left up to chance during the firing and glazing process. During this process, pieces can crack or explode and glaze can run, flake off, or come out differently than expected. In this sculpture, everything went according to plan. This piece is a physical interpretation of the way anger feels. In this sculpture, Rachel represents anger as a fist surrounded by flames of rage.
