Here we grow

Here at Halverson, we grow!!


This is a collaborative piece of art work that every student K-5th grade who comes to art was a part of! The inspiration from this piece of artwork came from  Vincent van Gogh, a Dutch painter famous for inspiring Expressionism.

Stop in and watch this piece grow as more flowers are added daily!

Sunflowers is one of Van Gogh's most famous paintings.  
Vase with Fifteen Sunflowers

The colors are vibrant and express emotions typically associated with the life of sunflowers: bright yellows of the full bloom to arid browns of wilting; all of the stages woven through these polar opposites are presented. Perhaps this very technique is what draws one into the painting; the fulfillment of seeing all angles of the spectrum of life and in turn reaching a deeper understanding of how all living things are tied together.
