student ART seen at Ms. Cutelis' high school reunion in NYC this weekend...

Aside from having a great time this Saturday at my high school reunion, the school, (Marymount School of NY which runs from k-12th grade) was filled with art everywhere....it was a dream come true to an art teacher like myself. Oh, and don't even think about asking what year reunion this is for me....!!

Below, are sample book covers done by students......my mind is already trying to figure out ways to do this with elementary children. These were done by high school girls. I keep saying 'girls', for the school is only for girls...
These are amazing portraits done by the high school students.
Now these (below) are to drool for......they are......clay shoes!!!! aren't they just the cutest things ever?....I am absolutely trying these with my kids.
You can tell this artist is growing up in NYC!!!
Paintings.....
These are portraits done on using Apple Ipads....



Marymount was the only girl school out of three schools across the country that got an award from Apple for being innovative education using technology. They are busy creating online textbooks that incorporate sound, videos, and digital kid drawings.....I am ready to try some of these ides out at Murch. See award below.
Check out this computer area!! Looks just like Murch....Dragons....
These are Marymount students here for their 50th reunion (below).....I hope I look this good at 67ish....
