Fillmore High School News
Senior, Danny Felix and Junior Angel Figueroa By Tom Ito — Monday, July 28th, 2014
Senior, Danny Felix and Junior Angel Figueroa are aspiring artists and students in Mrs. Mitzenmacher’s Advanced Art class at Fillmore High School. Their passion for art has spilled over to an extended canvas, the buildings of Fillmore High School. With materials from Mrs. Mitzenmacher’s class they were able to create stencils for the shield and the lightning bolt. Danny and Angel strategically chose 14 locations on campus to display their art work and then started the process of visually linking the buildings together with their creation. Using two stencils, several coats of paint and a whole lot of patience for each emblem, they spent nearly a week on this worthwhile project. When asked why they were willing to spend a week of their summer vacation painting, Angel said that, “I enjoy helping the school and applying my art skills to improving things.” Danny commented, “Art is a passion of mine and it is a natural extension into the real world.” |
