When Cheri Trachtman, Hamilton Heights Elementary School art teacher, and her students were asked to take a blank canvas and transform it into a work of art, they stepped up in a big way and created a colorful, meaningful painting.
“The inspiration was a tessellating hexagon which represents a beehive,” Trachtman said. “We are the busy bees working together to make something beautiful. Each hexagon is a different shade of orange. We mixed orange with white, gold, brown, black, and white. This signifies the different tints and shades of people that all blend beautifully to make our Husky family.”
Their artwork will be proudly displayed in the lobby of Hamilton Heights Administration building.
