    Student Artist Spotlight: Alberto Gomez

    We’re dreaming of lazy summer days in the European countryside, thanks to student artist Alberto Gomez’ latest piece, Mi Casa. Alberto created this piece when he was an 8th grader at Union Ridge School in Harwood Heights, Illinois. Alberto enjoys art because he can use many colors and techniques to create his work and the creative process involves “much more than only learning facts.” Featuring top-notch composition and color saturation, Mi Casa is an example of one-point perspective that directs the viewer’s eye down a shaded dirt road, past purple-blue trees and rolling green hills, up to a bright blue sky complete with wispy summer clouds.

    Student Artist Spotlight – Alberto Gomez

    Alberto joins countless other elementary, middle school, and high school artists whose watercolors, oil paintings, pastel, mixed media, and 3-D art has been featured on Sax catalogs and other marketing materials. We’re thrilled to promote these inspiring works and look forward to discovering even more student talent.

    Sax can help YOU inspire the artist in your students! Join us in celebrating your students’ inspired artwork by submitting it for consideration for a future Sax catalog cover – if selected you and your student will both win a Sax gift certificate! Entering is simple – just email an image of your selected artwork to artshare@schoolspecialty.com.
