Annie Bergen: "This Mural was in honour of Prince Edward School's 100 year
anniversary. My process was this: On my first day at this school, I visited each
classroom and discussed the Mural theme, as well as asked the students to make sketches
of their ideas. The Mural theme is 'Community, Diversity, History, etc'. After that, I
worked with a group of gifted, older students who made up our Design Group. Their job
was to sort through all the drawings, sort of 'quantify the info' and from there, we created
a list of criteria for what ideas needed to be incorporated into our design. I then worked
with the design group to create our final design. Once we had that in place, we were
ready to paint! From there, I worked with each student one time, as that was all the time
that we had. I started with youngest kids, who helped out with the background work.
From there, as the students get older, they complete more of the detailed work. Once I
had worked with each student one time (in small groups), I then painted with the design
groups who helped me with the final details. We had a great time working on this Mural,
and I was proud of the students' wonderful work! The Mural brightens up the community
beautifully."
