A new display of artwork is up at BSHS! Ms. Didawick's Art 2 students studied the Pop artist Roy Lichtenstein and each student chose a comic depicting human expression to enlarge and re create using a grid enlargement technique.
The annual hallway art show took place today. The hallways of building B were adorned with an array of fabulous artwork from our very own BSHS art students. Ms. Didawick and Mrs. Anderson's classes have done some amazing work this year!!!
While art students toured the hall they went on an art scavenger hunt to find art pieces that displayed some of the art terminology we have learned this year.
