ART 3850: Poem Portraits

Students in Dr. Arnold’s and Dr. Song’s Art 3850 classes created artwork for display in the TRC.  Dr. Arnold’s students created “Poem Portraits,” which reflect the words and overall mood of a self-chosen poem.  Students were asked to “put themselves into the work” as they represented the ideas from the poems.  Dr. Song’s students created two separate projects, “My Favorite Shoe” and “Emotionally Painted.”  They reflected their feelings and personalities through both representational and non-representational images.  Students used the elements and principles of art to express personal feelings and character traits in their works.
