Artist You Should Know

I love catching my students doing art, or when they bring something in they made at home. 6th Grader Nathan Hoffman is just the case. He has been working with metal at home and made these 2 beautiful pieces. Nathan says he gets the wire from scraps around the garage, sometimes he will scrape the plastic coating off with pliers first.  Working with metal is very difficult, and it was until college for me that i was able to experiment with it. Working with metal brings many challenges and problems and Nathan has done a great job with these pieces.

Nathan Hoffman is an artist you should know at Southdale.
