Winter Perspectives in Student Artwork
What better week than this one for students to express their winter perspectives in art class? With a fresh blanket of snow on the ground and a shivery chill in the air, Mrs. Brandy Lundfelt’s fifth-grade art classes were inspired to draw winter landscapes.
Their drawings had to include an ice rink, houses, a pond, and another building such as a school or church. The students created beautiful winter perspectives!
