YES-Kids have Rhythm... In Layers!

The last project of the 2011 Spring Session has been completed and is hanging in the Blount County Library for the entire month of June. The show also features other wonderful works of art from the last three sessions. Watercolor Sea Turtles, Op Art Checker, Pastel Resist Landscapes, The Scream, in pastel, The Eagle Has Landed in colored pencil, Big Blue Marbles in watercolor pencil, Parrots in Watercolor, Grid Drawings in Colored Pencil, Acrylic Art in the Sky, and the Colored Pencil Trio, depicting the three styles of Realism, Surrealism and Abstract. It's an awesome show. You shouldn't miss it!

 Rhythm In Layers

These pieces of art are amazing and all come from the creative minds of Youthful Expressions Studio students! They were asked to choose a 'theme', then build up and out with it. We are amazed at the vast array of ideas and their innovation. Here are just a few of the results. :

Ashley did an Art theme. Good one!

Isabella did 'Sweets' as her theme.

Kassidi's theme was 'Ninja Star' Awesome!

Katie's theme depicted 'Storms'

Jonathan created a 'Landing Sight' Terrific!

Very 'Fishy' creation, Nicole!

'Stars and Swirls' by Kayla. Colorful!

Emma did a 'Patriotic' theme. Good work, Emma!

As usual, please go to www.yestudio.org to see all the Layers. There is no end to the variety of these pieces. Another very successful project at YEStudio! This was the final project for the 2011 Fall Session.

We have since had our 'Wrap' party, where the YES-kids fashioned signs using NEON clay on a black, palette background. That was lots of fun. The signs were then displayed in black light and were awesome! The YES-kids dined on pizza, cookies and juice to celebrate another artistic 12-week session.
