FIRST QUARTER FINAL

MATTING

ADVANCED 2-D ART

mat board & mat knife

For seniors Elias Rodriquez and Jonathan Hsu,

choosing either their Pointillism or Prismacolor original to mat up, 

was their final for the quarter.

They both have cut two previous mats for me in the Intermediate class

last year,

but it's still a challenging task. 

And not only did they need to cut a mat, but they were required to embellish the mat

in some way to flow visually with their art piece.

Above we see Elias touching up his Prismacolor

by adding more highlights to it,

to balance with the white pen drawings he did on the mat.

Both works turned out phenomenally,

and I'm so very proud to show them off.
