Visual Arts - As the fall art competition comes to an end, the art students have decorated the HHS Library Media Center with a display of their works for teachers and students to enjoy. Even though it's the slowest part of art right now students in art are experimenting with collages. The students researched artists and were able to choose the type and style of collage that best suited their ideas. Several students created surreal collages and paper mosaics. Upper level students are preparing for the future. They are creating professional looking digital portfolios that they can add to as they progress through the art courses and that can be used for college scholarships and entry requirements.
