Artwork Fine Arts!Art Department Qnthe Way Up Working from Art I to becoming a Special Studies artist was the dream of many Art I students. However, one obstacle on the way up was being able to tackle the beginning skills taught in Art I. Having learned how the color wheel works, how to shade and how to make a basic sketch, the Art l student was ready to move to the next level. In the Art ll class everything that was learned in Art I was reinforced and brought the student to a better understanding of what he had learned. After hurdling Art l and Art ll, the student had to decide whether to take drawing or painting, both of which had to be taken before the stu- dent could become a Varsity artist. Once in the drawing class, the stu- dent Iearned how to draw with pen- cil, pen, oil pastel, conte chalk and completed a scratch board. On the other hand, the student could choose to take painting where he would learn howto paint with tempra, water color, and possibly oils or acrylics. With all these classes taken, the student became a Varsity artist. Upon teacher approval, the student could take special studies art along with another drawing or painting class. Being in Special Studies had its privileges and responsibilities. Because there were no set assign- ments, the special studies students had to have self discipline, direction, and motivation.

Earth now lay in total ruins. We had survived the devastation and destruc- tion ofthe nuclear holocaust. An auto- mated rocket was to take us to our new world, a distant planet not unlike Earth. There we would begin to rebuild what was left of the human race. There were five of us left as we boarded the ship. We were all that remained of the once great planet Earth. Each of us climbed into his sleep chamber and closed the hatch. ln two years we would awake to see our new home. Out of the window, we could see our new world. Beautiful and blue, like the one we left years ago. Tall mountains and green valleys, long flowing rivers that stretched across the face ofpthe planet. Upon impact our ship was split in two. We were thrown into unconsciousness. When we awoke, we found ourselves in what seemed like a garden. lt was cool and moist. Everything was so green. I couldn't help but notice the huge plants that surrounded us. Giant leaves of lettuce, enormous cucum- bers and carrots as big as ourselves. l thought it would be best if we explored this strange land. Without venturing more than a few yards, we came to a barrier. lt seemed to be a curved wall made out of china. lt started to rain, but it was no ordinary rain. lt smelled incredibly like vinegar and oil. Looking up to see where it was coming from, l saw three giant eyes gleaming happily at me. A myste- rious voice exclaimed, Bon appetite . - Cris Nelson - The Appetizer .V Q. H s 5 . AArtwork by.
