Our high school visual art students started workin Our high school visual art students started working in 3D this week with James Pullen. They were able to visit work from a recent artist in resident, Matthias Neumann who constructed an outdoor piece here in Monson. As well as a current artist in residence, Robin Crookall, who constructs 3D models for her photography work. Both artists use easily accessible and affordable materials for their three-dimensional work, which served as a perfect example for our students.
