Hi, welcome to the CCA art page; I am Myra Hanson. I am honored to teach art at Cardinal Community Academy. Shape, lines, color, texture, light and shadow, space, pattern, and balance are the elements of design. Art is found throughout our world, not just on paper or canvas. Everyone experiences art in individual ways. In my art classroom, imperfection is expected and encouraged. That is the only way we find our true selves. Come along with my students as we journey to find the lily ponds of Monet, ride The Great Wave of Katsushika Hokusai, and walk the rainbow of the color wheel. We will journey the ancient art world of the Greeks and Romans, as well as engage our minds to see technology incorporate the ancient Japanese origami art in the ever-approaching needs for space technology. In closing, I want to share my favorite art quote by Alev Oguz, a modern-day artist, “Art is the journey of a free soul."
