Artist, Milisa Galazzi, is best known for her three dimensional hand sewn shadow drawings, her printed and drawn works on paper, and her richly layered abstract paintings all of which explore the very nature of being human. Her work is held in private international collections as well as public collections in the United States such as Women and Infants Hospital and the Women's Medicine Collaborative in Rhode Island. She exhibits nationally in solo and group shows in both galleries and museums. Galazzi presents talks at national and international conferences such as the International Encaustic Conference and the National Art Education Association Conference in New York City and teaches classes at universities such as Clark and Yeshiva. Her artwork has been featured and reviewed in Surface Design, FiberArts and ArtScope magazines as well as in books such as, "Contemporary Cape Cod Artist: On Abstraction," and "Paper + Wax, Techniques in Handmade Paper and Encaustic” as wells as, "Encaustic Art in the Twenty First Century." Galazzi was 'boat schooled' as a child while she and her family traveled and lived aboard their thirty-one foot trimaran sail boat hand built by her father. She received an MA with Honors from the Rhode Island School of Design were she exhaustively researched the educational effectiveness of community-based art education settings and her findings are published by Harvard University Graduate School of Education, Project Zero Press, 1999. In addition, Galazzi holds a BA from Brown University where she studied Studio Art with minors in Women’s Studies and Cultural Anthropology. She attended and graduated from Phillips Academy, Andover. Her broad education directly informs the content of her art making. Galazzi works full time in her studio in Providence, Rhode Island.

Photographing your Art and Turning it In

9/24/2019

1 Comment

 
When an assignment is completed you will need to take a high quality photograph of your artwork. 
Here are some tips:
  • Use the best camera you have (iPad, phone or teacher's camera)
  • The artwork should be neat, not folded or damaged
  • Hang the art on a flat wall or place on an easel
  • Set up art with light that is consistent and equal over the entire work of art (no shadows)
  • Make sure that your camera is parallel to the image
  • Take more than one photo and compare them
  • Check you pictures and select the most accurate one
  • Crop and straighten your work in photo editing app

Turn In the Photograph 
  • save the image to your google drive folder for this class (create one if you have not already)
  • name the file with the name of the assignment
  • place the picture into your drive folder. DO NOT KEEP IN YOUR CAMERA ROLL
  • go to google classroom and turn in your assignment


Photograph before edits- DO NOT TURN IN A PHOTOGRAPH LIKE THIS!

Fantastic Middle School Art Camp 2019

What happens when you put middle school students together to create art? You have a fantastic all day art making blast! 

These students created tons of art during our art camp. They explored different media and had fun playing. We even had a few competitions creating the tallest hat and the tallest tower. 

This was a very special group of students that we can't wait to have in high school someday! It was wonderful to see so many friendships develop through out the camp days. 
​
Special thanks to our two camp counselors Sydney and Anthony!
