Artist’s of the Month at YSHS

One of my favorite things about York Suburban is the creativity of our students; especially in creating beautiful artwork. When I first approached the art teachers about this idea, I was expecting them to say that it was too soon and that their students had not expanded their skills enough yet, completely understandable reasons. However, the students and staff of YS never fail to achieve excellence! 

This month, Mrs. Fornadel and Mrs. Furjanic both selected some students they would like to highlight for their incredible work. Under their guidance, these students were able to grow in their talent and truly produce beautiful pieces of artwork. 

Milan Gerald, Junior, is currently in Painting I, a class taught by Mrs. Fornadel. In this class, they investigate warm color pallets and as part of her investigation, she had illustrated this gorgeous piece.  Inspired by the artworks of Amrita Sher-Gil, Home Salon was painted utilizing acrylics on canvas paper, and was clearly brilliantly executed. Congrats Milan! 

Our next student is Olivia Diehl, who has gone above and beyond inshowcasing her artwork to the community. She is currently being featured at Creative York, who are displaying her work until November! Olivia also has her work accepted at The York Art Association Juried Expedition, which had 347 pieces of art submitted to it. She is such a talented artist and has depicted something so beautiful. This is truly incredible, we are so proud of you, Olivia!

And last but not least is a piece by Christian Sandoval-Hernandez, who was nominated by Mrs. Furjanic. We love your creativity and artistic abilities, keep it up!
