Student Spotlight: Jonathan


 There are many talented students at Dundee Community Schools.  Here is a look at some amazing work done by Jonathan.   He is currently going into 8th grade and has a passion for “junk" art, experimenting and assemblages.  I have been so impressed by his work, I just had to share.  He has been updating me over the summer with his creations.  I hope you appreciate them as much as I do.

Last summer at art camp students created junk assemblages. Above is one of Jonathan’s examples.  This is when I learned about his love for creating out of junk.

Below is a picture of Jonathan’s studio space in his basement…

Another great thing I love, is Jonathan documents his art on YouTube.  Check out/subscribe to his channel….
