AP Studio Art Students Showcase Their Talents in Annual Art Show

AP+Studio+Art+Students+Showcase+Their+Talents+in+Annual+Art+Show

With the j-pod walls full of student art work, and the halls crowded with family and friends, the AP Studio Art students hosted their annual art show last Thursday night.

In AP Studio Art, each student is required to create ten to twelve pieces to send to the AP graders with one common theme throughout all the pieces.

Displaying their artwork before it is sent to College Board were Molly Fehr, Elena Tontoni, Alyssa Dannaker, Elaine Daubney, Callie Rojewski, Sarah Parrotte, Jillian Zhong, Gabby Hoffman, Val James, Ashley Walter, Julia Meeker, Reena Philips, Emily Brouch, Colin Cousart, Rachel Hoffman, and Branden Griggs.

Having been involved with the North Penn Art program since sophomore year, senior Reena Philips’ concentration was mental disorders.

“I work in a retirement community in the medical unit, so I drew inspiration from the patients and what I see everyday,” said Philips. Her pieces exhibit mental disabilities that develop throughout different ages such as autism, multiple personality disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Senior Rachel Hoffman’s concentration was a mix of her two loves: cooking and horror movies.

Hoffman’s strawberry short cake painting is her favorite piece because strawberry short cake was her favorite childhood desert. Placing a bloody heart subtly in the cake to add the horror and gore part of her concentration, Hoffman alludes to both themes in a fun and quirky way.

Some other concentration topics were Molly Fehr’s connection between humans and animans, Callie Rojewski’s fashion through the ages, Jillian Zhong’s mechanization of humans, and Emily Brouch’s illumination.

For many of these students, art is has become more then something that they are just good at.

“Art is relaxing. When your having a bad day at school you just sit and draw and it makes you feel ten times better,” said Philips.

If you missed the AP Studio Art Show, the school-wide art show will be coming up soon in mid May where you can see all the creativity of J-pod students.
