Young art students

I have recently joined the local art league,

and I feel honored to be a part of it.

One of the things the art league does is to

recognize local young artists,

and to award scholarships to art students.

We had two art students attend the last meeting,

and I was so pleased to meet them.

This is Alyssa,

one of our art leagues

scholarship recipients

from TAMUK.

She is showing one of her prints

along with the block she carved.

Amazing work!

This is high school student, Jaquelyn,

with her colorful acrylic painting

she created from her own drawing.

Very nice work.

I believe both of these young women have lots of talent,

and we will be seeing much more of their wonderful art.

We need to celebrate  the next generation of

America's artists of all kinds.

Arts education helps young minds to develop critical skills

in analytical thinking, interpretation, and creative interaction.

Support young artists everywhere.

Savor the Day!
