Galena High School Artist Weekly Spotlight - Claire Catlin

Mrs. Purkey has introduced the Galena High School Artist Spotlight of this week! As a reminder, a new student will be chosen by random for an opportunity to showcase their art each week. The student will be selected by getting their name drawn if they decide they would like a chance to be selected for the Artist Spotlight.

This week’s artist we are honoring is Claire Catlin! Claire is always ready to do her best and takes her time ensuring all details are accurate and as polished as possible. Claire shows up ready to succeed with any project presented to the class. The community is very happy to showcase her artistic abilities this week! One of Claire’s best projects was a painting inspired by the artist Georgia O’Keeffe. O’Keeffe encouraged everyone to be brave, patriotic, and to stay focused on your dreams. Claire handled the assignment beautifully by depicting a rose representing our nation’s flower and in the still life style of Georgia O’Keeffe. The community looks forward to seeing more great work from Claire! 

If you would like a chance to be chosen for the Artist Spotlight, you can ask Mrs. Purkey to enter your name into the drawing. As Artist Spotlight continues throughout this year, there will be more artwork to showcase! Artist Spotlight has and will continue to encourage the art students to showcase their hard work, and expand their creativity. Galena High School will look forward to what other amazing artwork will be featured in the following weeks to come!
