Finalist #1

Torri C.'s whimsical creation of a bed with natural elements. The manipulation of values is beautiful.

Furniture Finalis #2 by Erin W.

Erin W. displays her great skill in all aspects of drawing with her replication of M.C. Esher's famous drawing.

I like it because it is so different.

Anyway you look at this picture, Dayhana B. drew and looked at the furniture assignment in a unique and interesting way.

Yay for color by Katelyn M.

Katie said she put her heart and soul into this, and you can tell. This mixed media creation has great use of color and impressive crisp clean lines.

An ironically humourous Thanksgiving feast everyone would be talking about for years to come by Jeremy G.

"Your Pal Mickey Mouse" from Courtney...

11-15 FINALIST from Casey, Jenkintown HS

Casey's poetic composition- LOVE the detail and imagery:) (sorry to be posting this one late)

Mr. A's picks:

So creative and fun: Diana A. took great care in depicting her entire tablemates as near super hero like characters. Awesome composition, detail, shading, use of colors, and creativity.

So cute.

Maybe this beautiful drawing should have labeled "Torri's Best Friend?" Such great organization and neatness with the presentation of the text, very delicate texture on the doggie, and the overall serene feeling in the picture. These are just some of the reasons I'm posting this.
