Middleburgh Elementary Students Learn Art-Science Fusion from Renowned Illustrator Robin Brickman

Middleburgh elementary students recently participated in a workshop led by professional artist and illustrator, Robin Brickman. The students, part of the school's art and book clubs, learned Brickman's unique three-dimensional image creation technique using paper, scissors, paint, and glue.

The workshop was arranged by art teacher and club advisor Kim Audino. She aimed to expose her students to the intersection of art and natural science. Audino appreciated Brickman's approach to illustrating children's books, which merges these two fields. The students learned and applied Brickman's technique in their work.

After the workshop, the students used the learned techniques to create their own art. The 86 club members collaborated to sculpt paper plants and animals for a coral reef mural, demonstrating their understanding of the art-science connection.

The finished mural is displayed outside the Middleburgh Elementary School library, showcasing the students' work to the school community.

Robin Brickman, a well-known illustrator with several published books, visited Middleburgh Elementary School. Her visit offered a unique learning opportunity for the students, blending art and science in a practical, creative manner.
