Tiger Talents week

Tiger Talents week was June 13 - 17. Students chose 2 classes to go to each day. The art department offerings were Inspiration in the Hallways and Paper Casting.




In Inspiration in the Hallways students painted quotes throughout the building.

















Paper casting is a process of making a mold (we did several types) and then blending up paper to create paper pulp. The paper pulp is then pressed into the mold and all of the water is removed. The mold then dries and the paper is removed. The finished pieces are 3-D.

Blending to create paper pulp.






Draining and removing the extra water.
