5th Grade Blessed Mother and Child


The 5th graders did such a beautiful job on their oil pastel drawings of our Blessed Mother and Child.
The students were given very brief instructions on how to draw St Mary, then drew her in black oil pastel on black paper.  They colored in with oil pastels, leaving some paper showing through.  Gold and silver metallic paints were used to create the halos.  I believe this is my favorite art piece done so far this year!
I have left the art hanging upstairs long after the Christmas season has past in honor of our patron saint,
St. Mary.
