The fourth week of Van Go's spring JAMS session wrapped up as artists completed their vertical story paintings. (In case you're just joining us, these paintings include nature symbols of the artists' identities and views of the world.) Here they are, coiled into mini-totems!
Now, on to the big daddies... These gigantoriffic bases, made of wood, cardboard, newspaper, glue and cement, eventually will be adorned with found objects and painted with symbols explored through artists' vertical paintings.
In other news, Sam took home the prize for Employee of the Week. He also found out he was accepted to not one but THREE prestigious art institutes, which is his post-graduation plan. Artistic skill is not a requirement for working in JAMS, but Sam happens to be one artsy-fartsy fellow. Congrats!
