Meet & Greet

In week three of Arty Beginnings we had the pleasure of meeting Carmon Webbe, the model for Curtis Holder’s artwork. Carmon came to our setting to meet our children and provide them with the opportunity to ask her questions about her experience with Curtis. During the Q&A session, we discovered that Carmon’s sketch took two days to complete. During this time they developed a strong connection as they talked and listened to a variety of music, while Curtis worked on the sketch. Carmon shared stories about her family members who are featured in the background of her portrait, and her narrative added great depth to the artwork. She even encouraged the children to sketch her themselves.
