Sheboygan North High Art Students Advance to State Art Exhibition

The Wisconsin Art Education Association (WAEA) hosts 6 regional student art exhibitions across the state of Wisconsin. Over 600+ K-12 student artworks are submitted by WAEA members. Each region organizes a local regional exhibition consisting of an opening reception for the young artists. All students are eligible to receive an award by an arts professional. From the regional exhibition, a percentage of the artworks are selected to advance to the state art exhibition in Madison in celebration of Youth Art Month in March. There will be a public awards ceremony on March 22, noon – 1 pm, at the East Town Mall, 89 East Towne Mall, Madison, WI 53704. This is open to the public.

The Sheboygan North High Art Department is pleased to announce that six art students advance to the state art exhibition. They are Ellie B (gr. 10), Danica D (gr. 11), Dennis H (gr. 9), Lilac L (gr. 12), Audrey M (gr.10), and Maria M (gr. 10).

This is a huge accomplishment for these young artists!

Art Happenings: Week of September 24, 2018

North High art students are in the creative zone. Art Foundations 1 students wrapped up a radial design project focused on pattern and positive/negative space. Art Foundations 3 students were introduced to stippling, hatching, and crosshatching. Senior Art 1 students created a charcoal drawing of a still life object. Drawing Intensive students worked with white charcoal pencil and focusing on differentiating the highlights from the dark tones and everything in between. 

Students are producing great works of art. Honing their drawing skills. Learning new techniques and ways of looking at things from multiple lenses. 

Another update coming to ya next week.

How Does Art Unite Us

Drawing Intensive students were given the task of creating an 18″x24″ art advocacy poster addressing, “How does art unite us”. Students chose their own medium/a to turn their idea into reality. Each poster shares how they view art and their lives. 

The above prompt was issued by SchoolArts Magazine as part of an annual art advocacy poster design challenge.

USPS Postage Stamp Design

Every year the Drawing Intensive students design a mock up USPS postage stamp expressing their interests. The past 4 years these stamps would be displayed at the Sheboygan Post Office. This year that ended due to a new policy that prohibits signage in the retail area of the post office.  So…here is a gallery of the students’ work.
