MAC October Student Spotlight: Caleb

October has arrived, and we are in the swing of things here at Mono Arts Council! We have gotten to visit every single student in Mono County at least once so far, and we're having a blast! This week, we started learning about. our 2nd artist of the year, Colombian Artist, Fernando Botero. We talked to Caleb, who's 6 years old, about art and why he loves it. He kept it simple for us: The basic truth is that ART IS FUN!


*These are all elements we talk about in the lesson about Botero and his art! You can see his portrait pictured here (and it was crazy hair day at school today)!


Why do you love Art?

I love art because it's so fun!


What is a favorite piece of art you have created?

Today I drew Botero!

He had a big head and I drew his glasses. I drew cats.*


What would you say to a friend to get them interested in art?

I would tell them that it's fun and we can do it together.


Do you have a favorite thing to draw?

I love to draw rainbows and cats! I think we're making pumpkins and Halloween art this week and I haven't done that before.


Do you have a favorite color?

Yes, blue - and that's why I wanted a blue background.

Do you do art at home?

I have paints and markers and I used to have crayons but I broke them all because you used them too much.
