Drawings

Students proudly show off their artwork after a class directed by Alex Jones, resident artist.  Alex is a professional Commercial Artist and Illustrator who provided his talents in the classroom integrating visual art into the core curriculum studied by students.

“It is obvious that Alex is a very knowledgeable artist.  Alex presented background information, specific instructions, and displayed many excellent examples of what the students would be expected to draw and paint.  Presentations were verbally and visually outlined step-by-step.  He communicated details of the residency to the students.  Alex also responded well to requests I had about pacing and further explanations.”  –Sharon Travassos, Willcox Elementary Teacher
