Youth Art Month at Portland Museum of Art

March is Youth Art Month across America. Art teachers in Maine who belong to the Maine Art Education Association get to send one student work in honor of this celebration. This year the students who are representing WHS are James Phelps, Pen and Ink Still Life on watercolor toned ground and Elizabeth Bois with a digital photo series Titled "Drawing with Light". 

James is in Art One with Mr. Johnson and Elizabeth is taking AP Studio Art / 2/D Design with Mrs. Bickford. Congratulations to these great students!

Students from all over the state will be honored at the award ceremony. Click here for more info at Portland Museum of Art.

MECA Visits Westbrook High School AP/Studio Art CLass

Last Thursday Maine College of Art came to speak to our AP/Studio Art class. The college was very impressed with the studio space and the work they saw of our students. On Friday during our teachers work shop Mr. Johnson taught us how to make a video using iMovie. Here is my very first movie! Be easy on the critique!
