THE STORY OF HEROES - “Super Power Hero Words - Bam! Pow!”Art Show and Sale by Lockeland Design Center a Metro K-4 Magnet School in East NashvilleART HERO, Katherine Sjoblom– Mrs. McMurray's first grade class


Katherine Sjobolom inspried Mrs. McMurray's first grade class to think of the Super Power Hero Word they choose at the beginning of the school year. The student's reflected on the colors and patterns that would express that word with acrylic paint. Katherine shared scraps of wood from her husband's Kung Fu wood breaking class and the student's painted to their heart's content. They also illustrated their words on a "bam! bow! symbol" to give it more emphasis. The words, the painted background and found objects were added together to create the amazing pieces you see here. The icing on the "Super Power Hero Words- Bam! Pow!" art is the writing and illustrating that goes along with it. The student's stories had extra understanding and often humor to the story behind the art!
