Diversity of art media produces creative variety from art students Art and Technical Drafting offer a great opportunity for students to ex- press themselves creatively. Four levels are taught, higher level stu- dents experimenting more freely. The relaxed creative atmosphere of the art classroom is a welcome oasis for those who enjoy art. The training in self-expression that the art curricu- lum offers is helpful to all, not just the future artist. Under the careful instruction of Mr. Darnell, drafting students can also design imaginative original cre- ation.

In the Art and Drafting Depart- ments, one has the pleasure of con- crete creation and formation of an extension of oneself. nm- lAbovel Cindy Conti intently adds delicate brush strokes to a tree limb. ll-?ightl Another ambitious art student works on chalk. 31
