Students: ‘I’m an artist!’

Third-grade student Kensley “Art Girl” McCandless (center) posed for a picture with her mother and her acrylic painting titled “Brown Cat” at the Gallery Moab artist reception on Friday, Feb. 8. Gallery Moab collaborated with local elementary school art coach Bruce Hucko to display student artworks created outside of the regular art curriculum. Hucko said that as an art coach at Helen M. Knight Elementary, he has heard students say “I’m an artist!” daily for the past 10 years. [Photo by Murice D. Miller / Moab Sun News]
