Battle of the Brush

On Friday, March 6, JMMS had 5 teams of students compete in the Juilliard Arts Center's Battle of the Brush Contest at Timken High School. This was the first time we have participated in this event. Although we did not win, the kids had a great time! The teams were given a theme, then 45 minutes to brainstorm and sketch out their ideas, then 2 hours to cooperatively paint a large canvas. All our teams did an amazing job! The finished work was then auctioned off and will be on display at the middle school.

Here's some in-progress photos from the event. The theme was "Invisible Thread".

 

And the finished pieces! Not bad for only 2 hours! It was fun to see all the unique interpretations of the theme.
