The Island

Trenton's class at HDMS had the opportunity to have a lesson with the Watercolor Society of Reno. Five or six artists came in and gave a presentation and then let the students create their own piece. The society provided beautiful paper and nice watercolors and then they matted the art for each student so the class could have a showing of their paintings. The class had an amazing variety -- I was impressed and so pleased they had this opportunity. Trenton prefers drawing over painting, but I think he exhibits a great use of color and wish he would paint more. The image looks serene to me (and perhaps you) but don't be fooled...according to the artist the island is a toxic waste dump site, which proves sometimes things are not what they seem!
