PTA Reflections

In the fall the PTA sponsors an art recognition program. Every students is invited so submit up to one piece of art in each of several categories. Iy made a submission for 3-D and visual art. Ev made a submission for photography and 3-D. Et made a submission for photography, 3-D, visual art, and literature. The school recognized every student for submission(s) and selected two from each category (in 3 different age groups) to represent the school at the next level. Et's submissions for photography and visual art were selected at the school level and he received a couple of medals and a certificate. Ev's submission for 3-D was selected to represent the school. Sadly, I did not get pictures of Iy's art and it no longer exists. But here is some of the art:
 
Et took this picture and 'tweaked' it--it was his photograph submission.
 
Ev took this picture which we all fell in love with. Sadly, it was not selected to represent the school but the PTA Pres did ask if she could buy it!
 
Here is Ev's 3-D submission. She called it "Jivin' to the Music".
 
Here is Ev after the awards night this last Thurs where her 3D art was selected as the region finalist! Her 3D submission will represent all of Tooele as it moves to the next level! Obviously Ev's photography skills are superior to mine. Congratulations Ev!!

I tried to get a picture of Et with his certificates, as he was also recognized that evening. He was one of the only kids to receive two certificates at this level. Unfortunately he was experiencing severe camera shyness, so we settled for blogging his photograph.

What beautiful and talented children you have my dear. I really like Ev's picture too. Very much something I would put on my wall.
