Most are assigned projects; for example, Newark Valley students created animal sculptures in a traditional Mexican style. Others include portraits, anatomy studies, comics and sculpture in a range of mediums and styles, pastel, stippling, paint, marker and many more. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2019\/05\/Art1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Sprouts of Imagination Student Art Show at Tioga Arts Council\" class=\"wp-image-73158\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2019\/05\/Art1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2019\/05\/Art1-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2019\/05\/Art1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>The walls of the Tioga Arts Council have been covered in student artwork for three weeks for the \u201cSprouts of Imagination\u201d art show.

Each category had multiple artists place first second and third, \u201cThey\u2019re well deserving,\u201d Christina Di Stefano, executive director of the Tioga Arts Council said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students were judged on their execution in skill, composition, shading\/gradient, originality in subject just to name of few points in the thought process of the Art Council jury.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a great leaning experience,\u201d Di Stefano said. \u201cThe kids learn to create the art, the business side and what it takes to execute an exhibition.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Burton Taylor, Newark Valley art teacher, said his students get to \u201cviscerally interact with the space in which their work is shown.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students also price their work. In fact, Taylor said the most common question he gets in preparation for the show is \u201chow much do I charge for it?\u201d Students are always shocked, he says, when they multiply the number of hours they spent creating the piece by minimum wage, usually totally more than $100.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis always starts the dialogue about how their time as a creative is worth money,\u201d Taylor said, \u201cThat this piece, a unique work of art, is worth money because it is unique and took time to create. From there, it is only a short step to realizing that art as a profession is a viable and thriving market.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking around the room there are still life drawings, pets in different poses, some angst teenage faces and some goofy compositions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe teachers teach them that it doesn\u2019t have to be a Van Gough,\u201d Di Stefano said. \u201cAll forms of art acknowledge that there is a variety and multitude of things in our every day life that are worthy of artistic merit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Di Stefano said the Tioga Art Council hopes to continue their work with artistic expression. They are preparing for their second season of Art&nbsp;\u00c1&nbsp;La Carte in partnership with the Tioga County Anti-Hunger Task Force. At summer meal sites, the Art Council will have chances for kids to have a chance at artistic expression. The Art Council is also gearing up for then Plein Air youth art exhibition in Draper Park taking place in July.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tiogaartscouncil.org\">www.tiogaartscouncil.org<\/a>, or call (607) 687-0758.
