Olivia Liebeskind
Beau Osher
Liam Osher
Aviva Relles
Emma Relles
Ethan Relles
Elliott Strong Margot Strong Zoe Thompson
Thalia Inga submitted and will be exhibiting the following artwork:
Thalia says of her piece, "This is an abstract painting. I first was going to call it 'Energetic,' but then I decided to call it 'Feelings,' because all the colors represent a lot of different emotions I feel in my brain and in my heart."
The 14 other artists, all students of El Segundo artist and art teacher Natalie Strong, collaborated on a piece made up of envelopes of various shapes, sizes and colors, inspired by the work of Camilla Engman. It is titled "Good Childhood" and is pictured here:
Congratulations to these 15 young artists; we wish them a happy show at ShockBoxx!
