Super Easy and Fun Digital Art

Thursday, November 6th, 2008

Hi -

There’s a free program online that you can use to create beautiful art in minutes!  You can go to www.art.com and click on “art pad” at the bottom of the page to see the possibilities, or you can just click on the link below to go straight to the ArtPad program.  After your creation is done, you can email it to someone, save it for later and/or print it out.  When you replay the artwork, it shows each brush stroke until the painting is complete.  Very cool!  Check it out!

Visual Arts - Size Limitations

Thursday, November 6th, 2008

Please note the size limitation for visual arts entries -  24″ x 30″ and not thicker than 3/8″.  Last year, several students turned in awesome artwork that was painted on a stretched canvas.  These are closer to 6/8″ thick.  On the Texas PTA website, it states that entries that are too thick “may be disqualified.”  I’m certainly not going to disqualify any entry for being too thick, but there may be closer scrutiny at the state and national level, just so you know.  I’d hate for your child’s hard work to be disqualified because of the canvas.

You can give me a call if you have any further questions at 439-9411.

Thanks,

Julie Samford
