South Delta Secondary students have artwork and photography on display at the Coast Tsawwassen Inn.
The theme of the annual exhibit this time is "Split Second." The idea was to steer the theme to something to do with time because it's the school's 40th anniversary, explains SDSS fine arts department head Julie Lymburner.
Students from grades 10, 11 and 12 have their work on display.
Students who talked to the Optimist earlier this week, Ming Liu, Willow Swanson, Jenn Alton, Sasha Ballon and Matthew Hill, all received recognition for their work at the exhibit's opening night.
Liu created a charcoal pencil piece titled Eyes of Love; Alton used pencil to show a scene from the Lord of the Rings movies depicting Frodo saying goodbye to his friend Sam; Ballon did an oil painting of a frog titled Bounding; and Hill used the Northern Lights as an idea for his acrylic painting.
Swanson originally took her photo for the school's yearbook. She captured the image in the SDSS woodworking shop.
"I just like the composition of it a lot," she says. The show runs until May 20.
