Art Education in Schools

These pictures were taken at a local middle school where my mother works. The art teacher there is very caring and really wants the kids to learn as much as they can about art. They learned about Op Art. They drew still lifes. They worked on making Georgia O'Keffe flowers. They drew optical illusions. They also did silhouettes. I like seeing that art isn't just an extra class for the kids to take, but that they are really learning about art in class.
