Elizabeth Chisholm has taken over the studio drawing and painting class from Rick Che this school year. Her vision for the new direction this class will take includes helping students to approach new opportunities for creativity with confidence. Further, unlike the previous class plan, she will be broadening the scope of instruction to include both drawing and painting — as in years past the focus was solely on drawing to help refine students' basic skills. Reporter Charlotte Price has more on the changes to this class that Chisholm is implementing.
