N. Lewis made this painting for her sister and she doesn’t mind sharing her painting with our school. You can tell she really loves sharing her work with her school.her painting for her sister was just as great as the first. She has a very creative mind and she is very talented.
N.Lewis wanted to share with her school community the fine details about this painting. N.Lewis said that she made the painting for her sister’s birthday, as she was turning 17 and her sister asked for the painting. It took N.Lewis an hour to paint the painting by her sister’s birthday on April 5. According to N. Lewis, she said that she likes to paint a lot and the painting she made for her mom for the past Eid al-Fitr inspired her to create this painting.

An amazing drawing made by N Holland from 108 . In my opinion, you can tell she really loves the fact that she’s an artist. N. Holland’s drawing gives you many ideas, but one is that she’s very talented and knows it.
“[N. Holland] is interested in sharing her artwork, because it is something she truly enjoys,” Ms. Lisa of Room 108 said. “It is one of her talents and she worked hard on it and she wanted to share with her school community”.

N Lewis from class 72 has made a painting from an old picture. Her painting is a pretty pathway. I think as the KAC Editor that its very unipue and different from other paintings. Here’s what N Lewis has to say about her painting:
I saw a old picture and wanted to draw it
An hour long
My whole life
A lot

G. Gomez of section 51, has made a mask for Ms. DeJesus’s class. And it was a lot of hard work, but she said she didn’t mind. Other students made this festive mask, and here is what G. Gomez has to say:
Because I think it would be fun. The mascara de Vejigante is a Puerto Rican tradition. To make these masks with the following materials:
1-same amount of water and glue.
2-a couple strips of news paper.
3-a balloon.
4- wait till dry.
5- decorate anyway you want.
The Vejigantes dance and then they come next to you and smack you with a colorful powder deflated Vejiga. When a Vejigante comes next to you and smack you with a Vejiga people feel special. To me it means to be proud of where you’re from to honor your country and your culture.
