Patterned Bug<br />

Nayeem Azan<br />

Grade: 4<br />

School: PS 877, Queens<br />

<strong>Art</strong> Teacher: Kathleen Izzo<br />

Ink on paper<br />

STUDENT: I want the viewer<br />

to know that art can make a<br />

positive change in a person’s<br />

life. I am interested in drawing<br />

and the many skills it takes to<br />

make a good piece of artwork.<br />

I love to explore how to add<br />

tones, shadow, and light to my<br />

artwork. Working hard in art<br />

and other subjects can lead<br />

you to great success!<br />

TEACHER: Students became<br />

immersed in patterns and<br />

textures by observing designs<br />

and colors in nature. They<br />

examined and then created<br />

their own patterns in color<br />

and in black and white. They<br />

incorporated these patterns<br />

into their representations of enlarged<br />

and accurately drawn replicas of<br />

beetles, butterflies, and other insects.<br />

Nayeem exhibits a maturity in his<br />

art. He has a sketchbook with a host<br />

of the most amazing drawings that<br />

demonstrate his desire to explore life<br />

through his artwork.<br />
