6th Grade – Ode to Grecian Urns (Scratch board Mounted on Wood)
John Keats’ famous poem and their study of ancient Greek culture and art inspired OTA’s “Team 6” to create their own unique montage of Grecian Urns. “What leaf-fringed legend haunts about thy shape…” This amazing piece, steeped in antiquity, will evoke heroic poetry in any room! (4” x 4”)

Ode to Grecian Urns in its natural habitat!
1st Grade Students painted fish on paper, using reference photos and water-color paint. They then composed a story as a class, based on the individual paintings. The paintings were scanned then printed on thermal transfer paper, and used to embellish a shower curtain. The shower was a “one-of-a-kind” auction item for school fundraiser, but the books continued to be sold after event. The concept is that the same project could continue to bring in revenue long after the event.
SOLD $600.00
