Art Hero Michelle Fuqua - Ms. Boles' First Grade Class


“Hero Sandwiches”

THE STORY OF HEROES -Art Show and Sale by Lockeland Design Center a Metro K-4 Magnet School in East Nashville

ART HERO, Michelle Fuqua – Mrs. Boles’ first grade class

Michelle inspired the children to think of the “ingredients” that make up a Hero. She brought in visual examples of sandwiches and printed out a list of words like: loving, helpful and kind. The children first drew their hero sandwiches with Sharpie markers on a colorful background. Next they used brightly colored acrylic paint and a variety of found objects to create texture. Once everything was dry the children went back and wrote the words that make up the “ingredients” for their own hero sandwich. The stories that go along with theses are touching. Some of the stories speak of their real life heroes such as their grandparents and friends.
