Project Overview

Jim Mondloch visited the Roseau High School to lead a workshop where students worked with color, texture, values, design and various washes and brushstrokes. This workshop had a limited number of participants, so that patrons could have extra attention and/or help as they created their own works of art.

We hoped interest in this subject matter would increase. We distributed evaluations after each program.
