Description
"I am 12 years old," says Sarah Denison. "I am excited to start eighth grade at Shadow Ridge Middle School in Thornton, Colorado. I am looking forward to my second year as the Art Teacher's Assistant, and to my honors math and science classes. I also enjoy band, choir, swimming, and anything 'crafty.' I was honored and privileged to be a part of this project and made this mask because I have had two grandparents pass away from cancer and both utilized hospice services. Our family knows first hand how valuable hospice can be."
Special Instructions
Recently I learned how to make flowers out of aluminum cans in art class. I really enjoyed the process and creating this form of art. When I thought about what I wanted to do for the Mask Project, I knew I wanted the mask to have a 3-dimensional aspect to it, so I decided to include aluminum flowers in the piece. This inspired me to paint the landscape scene because I thought it fit nicely with the recycled aluminum flowers concept.
