Work shown in this Art Room was done while Vivian Komando taught Visual Art at Pope John Paul II High School in Henderson, Tennessee. Prior to joining PJP II, Mrs. Komando was an art teacher at Niceville Senior High School, a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence and New American School, in Niceville, Florida. She is a faculty consultant for the College Board Advanced Placement Studio Art portfolios under the Educational Testing Service. She is also an assistant examiner for the International Baccalaureate Studio Art examination.  I am looking forward to adding updates from the students at Phillips Exeter Academy.

Students studied the Aboriginal dot style of painting. They created their own abstract works using dot technique. See student handout. Click images for larger views.
