As a result of this project students will be inspired to create paintings with a professional artist and share their paintings with the community. Evaluation will occur with a questionnaire for students and staff that will include general questions as well as comments. Project planners will also discuss the successes and needs of the residency.
Students did create a new watercolor painting each day of the residency, learning techniques from artist, Jim Mondloch. Paintings were displayed in the showcases at Roseau Elementary. Students indicated on the questionnaire and to their teachers they were getting a lot better at painting, they LOVED their painting time and wondered how soon they would get to paint again!
