New and inspiring art display case at CAHTS!


A new and highly attractive art display has been created at CAHTS as part of the high school's STEAM program. Art teacher Vivian Reyes and Art PIR Triada Samaras co-created this display case using the stellar, two and three dimensional perspective paintings created in acrylic on canvas board by Ms. Reyes' STEAM students.

The paintings make an artistic as well as informative addition to the CAHTS hallways, educating students and other viewers about the discovery of two and three dimensional perspective during the Renaissance by Fillipo Brunelleschi in Italy.  


In addition the display has a QR code posted that enables CAHTS students to use technology to visit the STEAM blog at this URL.
















The creation of linear perspective methods was an enormous moment in the history of art based on a mathematical/scientific principles and has allowed artists ever since to create the illusion of space out of a flat surface.  As a result of this invention, paintings, drawings, prints, and even digital images and animation are much more realistic than they would have been had it not been discovered.
