                                           Art Gallery


Please take a moment to look through the Pilibos Art Gallery, which features some of the most recent works from the Fundamentals of Design and Studio Art classes. A special thank you to our absolutely amazing and extremely talented art teacher, Ms. Jessica Anderson. Pilibos is grateful to have such a creative teacher like you. Without your guidance, none of these artworks would have been made. Lastly, a big shout out to our extraordinary students who are extremely talented in the field of art.

                                Fundamentals of Design:







Fundamentals of Design: Black and White Composition: For this assignment students chose their subject matter. They were asked to create a “composition-design” using 50% black and 50% white. They were shown several techniques for spilling the space including "overlapping, interrupted grid, and simplification." Students were also shown many strategies for creating a successful and dynamic composition, such as the rule of thirds and the golden ratio. Students used black acrylic paint to complete this project.









Fundamentals of Design: Paper Mosaic: Students were asked to create a mosaic motif incorporating natural subjects (nature). Students used colored paper between 0.5-1 inch to create their picture. For inspiration students viewed images of the Armenian Bird Mosaic in Jerusalem.








                                      STUDIO ART:

Studio Art: The 2 pictures below contain a combination of Cross Hatching and Cross Contour Lines black and white drawings. The cross contour lines were used to define the surface of the person’s face. For the cross hatching, students chose pictures of any person they wished to draw and Used cross hatching to shade their pictures.









Studio Art: The pictures below contain pictures from the Charcoal Still Life collection. Students created a drawing of a still life using charcoal. The still life was set up in class.







Studio Art: The two paintings below are a part of the Atmospheric Perspective Landscape collection in which students created a landscape that incorporates a foreground, middleground and background. Students had the option to choose from watercolor or acrylic paint for this project. The painting had to incorporate an atmospheric perspective.

Winter Formal

At 12:15 on Friday, January 19, students rushed out of the Abcarian building halls, hoping they would have enough time to get ready for the long awaited, formal. Guys put on their best suits and the girls slipped into their best dresses, anxiously waiting to see what their friends are going to wear. Members of specific grade levels gathered earlier together to start the celebration and take lots of pictures. Soon students started rolling into the beautifully decorated hall in Metropol. The night started off with dining, along with the occasional dancing to the Armenian music being played. However, as the music got more intense, students could not get off the dance floor. The rhythmic beats of Armenian, Arabic, Spanish, and English music filled the hall and the bodies of the students. They took a quick break for some water and kebab, but quickly stood back up to continue dancing. Towards the end of the night, we celebrated Mr. McCrory’s and junior Veronica Mkhsi-Gevokian’s birthdays ...

What is Net Neutrality?

Net neutrality is the concept of having free access to the Internet. When an individual accesses the Internet, they expect to freely visit any website at any time. The concept prohibits Internet service providers like AT&T and Verizon from blocking, speeding, or slowing down any applications or websites we use. Net neutrality allows individuals the power to exhibit their right of having freedom of speech and communication online. On account of net neutrality, we are able to freely post any data of our choosing online. The Internet has always adhered to this concept, therefore it was quite shocking to hear how it was being dismantled. On Thursday, December 14th, the Federal Communications Commission voted on dismantling the rules which would prevent internet service providers from having access to the internet. This action reversed the decision made in 2015 under the Obama administration, which was aimed at having more control over the providers. However, according to the new F....
