Ella B., 9th Grade
One River School Clark (NJ)

How long have you been a student at One River School?
1 year.

Tell us a little bit about your journey as a young and developing artist.
My Aunt is an artist so I always went to do projects with her when I was younger. She gave me so many drawing materials and it always motivated me.

What has been your favorite project to work on at One River School and why?
The oil painting project that we just did in Teen Art Shuffle Plus because it brought me out of my comfort zone.

How would you describe One River School to your friends?
It is a fun place to come to because it doesn’t seem like school. If you go to an art school you think very structured, but it is not like that here.

What would you tell people, who’ve never dabbled in art making, are the real benefits of trying it?
Being creative in your everyday life is important and makes life more fun.
