Wallenpaupack South Elementary School
Newfoundland, Pennsylvania
Welcome to our visual arts gallery on Artsonia. Be sure to leave a positive comment for the students, they love hearing nice things about their artwork. Last year we ranked #9 in Pennsylvania, do you think we can top that this year? The money generated through Artsonia will help purchase extra art supplies for our classroom. Please take the time to register, this is the first step to build our comments and fan clubs. I look forward to another wonderful year in the art room!

My favorite part was sculpting my T-Rex, my least part was putting details on and getting it on the base. Well i would change it's arm's or feet cause they are big and all falling off.
written by Amanda2430
My favorite part is the lions paws. My least favorite part is the eyes. I would change the way the eyes are if I redid my gargoyle. The sleek body of a lion inspired me. I learned, in this process, how to scupt the lion.
written by Elizabeth1797
My favorite part was doing the wings. My least favorite was doing the head. My inspiration was my dragon. If I were to create something else I would make Sponge Bob. I learned that dragon wings look cool when the dragon is standing up. I'm surprised that my dragon stayed on the base.
