Our Next Project...

Elements of Art: Line

In the next project we undertake in class, we will be looking more in depth at one of the most fundamental elements of art: line. In this project, we will seek to better understand the varying nature of line in art and will put our understanding to the test using technical application.

Welcome!!!



Dear Archway Arete Parents and Students,

My name is Miss Candace Arce-Lindsay, and it is my privilege to serve as your children’s 4th and 5th grade Art Teacher this academic year. I am thrilled to be able to welcome you into our beautiful new facility, and I am so excited for what this new school year has to offer.

This year, I am afforded the privilege of exploring the subject of the fine arts with your children. We will delve into the elements of art, such as line, shape, space, and color, and we will not only examine different artistic techniques, but put them into practice as well. It is my great hope that I will be able to encourage an intellectual hunger and growing sense of wonder in your children as we explore the historical complexity of art and seek goodness, truth, and beauty as we study it.

I am so privileged to be working at Archway Arete, and to be afforded the opportunity of being a part of your child’s learning experience this year. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have as this academic year progresses. I greatly look forward to working with you to make this school year a challenging and enriching experience for your child.

With sincerity,

Candace Arce-Lindsay
