The art class guided by Ms. B Zelt of Church Lane Elementary School  in Baltimore, MD created the works of art above.

I found the drawings to be engaging and transformative, playful and lighthearted in style and technique.  I would like to thank Ms. Zelt and her inspired and talented students for sharing their artwork with me.

Ms. Zelt wrote: The student art work has been inspired by two well respected artists by the
names of  Joann Wells Greenbaum who painted DREAMSCAPES and Marc Chagall
who painted, I and The Village in 1911.

This art work was studied by our third and fourth grade students where they
identified the elements used when creating a picture of FANTASY. Each of the
triangles reflect the following themes: FAMILY, FAVORITE FOOD, FAVORITE TOY,
AND A DREAM HOUSE. You will notice flying figures, people upside down,
unusual colors, crazy combinations of foods and toys that every child dreams
of having in their toy chest and things that can only happen in our
IMAGINATIONS.
To further emphasize FANTASY you will notice each picture may be turned in
any direction creating many new ILLUSIONS of reality.
