Art Instills Appreciation of Culture Into Students The Art classes are both developmental and constructive, dealing with various fields of Art. Interest in the subject has been greatly aroused, as the size of the Art classes has almost doubled. This year Tunstall carries four classes of Art I and one large class of Art II. Art I students are first taught all the fundamentals of art, from basic shapes and perspective, to charcoal and pastels. Then after careful practice, they apply their knowledge to still life and landscapes. Art II students seem to be developing their art talents even further. This year they have been working with oils, on canvas and on velvet. They have experimented with modern art, pottery, and were taught linolium block printing. Besides learning about art in the constructive manner, both classes were taught the history of art; covering prehistoric cave drawings to the abstract art of Picasso. THE QUIET ATMOSPHERE of the library provides excellent study facilities. MR.
