Beyond the Brush: After 26 years of teaching art at Western Middle School, Dana Wheeler is still finding new ways to inspire her students. Over this year's winter break, Ms. Wheeler experimented with a paint-pouring technique to create stunning abstract art on canvas. 🎨 She mixed paints in a cup and then poured them over the canvas, using a hair dryer or straw to manipulate the paint into eye-catching flows and swirls. 🌀 Now her students are creating their own masterpieces using this technique! #ABSSArts #StudentCenteredFutureFocused
