Art Lover

Leyton has always loved arts and crafts, and if you ask him his favorite thing about school it is Art. 
Back in January he got to be 'Artist of the Week' at his school.  Each week the Art Teacher picks a student from Hillside and they fill out a little poster about themselves and then it is hung up in the art room window for the week.  Leyton was pretty excited to be chosen!  Here he is with his poster:

 In the Fall they had a carnival night at Hillside, and every student had a piece of artwork hung up in the school.  Here is Leyton with his purple mask (directly above his head).

A few weeks ago Leyton came home with a letter from his art teacher that he had a piece of artwork chosen for the Youth Art Month Exhibit at WITC.  There were many different schools there, and it was fun looking at all the different artwork.  Leyton couldn't remember what one his was, he only said he remembered his teacher asking if he could keep a project.
 When we found his, the purple hands above his head, he said "that was one of the very first things we did in school!", which I guess explains whey he couldn't remember what it could be :)

He was pretty proud!
