Here they are! The Canvases. They are 3 20" x 30" panels colorfully painted by children during a collaborative art experience. I absolutely adore them. They began by me sketching a few of the critters from the Disney Movie "A Bug's Life". The following week, five hours of a gently guided activity resulted in magnificent objets d'arts. Currently, the artwork is on display and they so totally rock our Conference Room.
I had such a good time and was delighted to witness the talents of emerging young artists. I watched in amazement as the children carefully chose their colors, selected the section that they wanted to paint and worked collaboratively, passing on their paintbrush, until each of the 3 canvases were a completed masterpiece. It's a memory that I will treasure and I can only hope that the event will be a memorable one for the children as well. The day was also captured by a great photograph on the front page of Section B of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette.
