The Art Student Art show in the LBCC Gallery runs from April 29 to May 14. The pieces displayed where selected by the art department faculty. All the different disciplines of art are presented in the annual comprehensive show.
B. Michael Kelly's piece "Demi-god" made of acrylic and the core made out of foam displaces a piece that bursts with color out of the white wall that holds it up. The animals and creatures and gods all balance each other within the piece. Mike Daniel Advanced Painting teacher, submitted Kelly's work.
"Phone Book Portrait" by Sean Lueder a beginning drawing student, is a portrait painted on a phonebook. The detail in the lines and the 3D effect of the paper make the image of this man jump at you right when you look at it. Lueder put an emphasis on the detail of the eyes with paint and ink.
Jon Gradias's "Native American Spirit Series" silver and turquoise jewelry displays a cultural aspect of jewels, culture, and art. He shows great craftsmanship with silver, but displayed detail on the feathers of the rings, and the masks of the Native American style rings he crafted. He uses the turquoise to bring out the shine in the silver and adds a touch of color.
"Self-Portrait in 20 Frames," by Jordan Gahol, uses images that describe him, and what makes him the person who he is by objects that surround him, such as his camera, shoes, skateboard, and fish. He shoots all these images with his Sony Camera using a great depth of field, lighting, and emotion displayed by his lens.
The staff did a great job at picking distinct pieces displayed in this annual exhibition of creativity.
