Winter Art Show Feature – The Jet Jotter

Winter Art Show Feature

Some of The Jet Jotter’s favorite art from the winter art show at LHS.

Isabelle Lewis' Winter Art — I came up with the idea for this piece at a time when I was struggling to find something to draw. Then one day I saw my friend wear a boldly colored flannel and I immediately wanted to draw her. I loved the strong lines of the flannel, her posture, and the effect of her hair in the picture.

“My foundation for this piece was a warm tint- meaning a piece with an orangey tone. Since I stick to portraiture my vision was having similar to a ‘mother nature’ figure but being ‘mother butterfly’. That’s why I decided to tie the butterflies into Alicia and really make it seem like they were attracted to her. Also my name means butterfly in Greek.”

Sofia Warren's Winter Art — This was taken in the Badlands during a rain storm and is about how the bighorn sheep are guarding their land from the top of the cliff.

Liam Brackman's Winter Art — The assignment was to create a collage of anything you liked, and to use a lot of small pictures to fill up the space. I did Vans theme because it’s my favorite brand and I like the style.”

Bella Quercia Winter Art — “I came up with the idea for this piece at a time when I was struggling to find something to draw. Then one day I saw my friend wear a boldly colored flannel and I immediately wanted to draw her. I loved the strong lines of the flannel, her posture, and the effect of her hair in the picture.”
