Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students live in an inner city struggling through issues of language barriers, crime, violence, and poverty, but despite it all, they foster and maintain a high level of hope and pride in their city.

The culture of the community is highly creative and expressive in many aspects of the arts, from visual arts to theater, to music, to dance.

The people and students here support and embrace the creative arts unlike many wealthier areas, and the people shine very bright because of it.

My Project

We will need the inks and brushes, palette trays and sharpies to create this large bright portraits. Each student will receive an individual bag of a variety of brushes, a few sharpies, and their own palette trays to care after and clean throughout the semester.

Each student artist selects a photo of a person to create a bold colorful simplified portrait of in inks.

The variety of vibrant intense colors for the students to choose from fosters a great range of creative artworks completed and displayed later in the school. This Icons in Ink portrait project in my Intro to Drawing classes allows for student choice to enhance student engagement.
