My sweet Greer, You are an amazingly talented young lady, who inspires me everyday. This work of art makes me feel very happy! A pretty blue sky, healthy green grass and a beautiful tree. A vision of a perfect summer day!

FIRST GRADE students enjoyed their art time outside on our beautiful campus grounds (en plein air). They were asked to draw one special tree, and "not a broccoli." Afterward, students were expected to create their own greens and browns vs. taking the easy route and plopping their brushes into the ready-made paint! The works were filmed in progress during our plein air sessions and also while students were painting indoors. These are complicated works that required observing nature in a three-dimensional environment and visually translating what students observed into a two-dimensional representation! The e-portfolios while in progress are available on my Twitter account @RuthKeefer and also on YouTube (Ruth Keefer art). These delightful landscapes from our own campus would make memorable note cards and/or gifts for your friends and family. Thank you for supporting ParishArts! I would love to take all of these works home with me!
What a beautiful picture, Greer. I just finished reading a novel titled The Goldfinch and this artwork reminds me of the book I read. I love your choices of colors for your picture. I am so happy you enjoy painting and that you love your new school! We hope to see you soon. Love, Coco
