Tree of Life and Talking Sticks

By Marcia Beckett | February 11, 2017 - 8:23 pm |July 5, 2024 art history, middle school, painting, sculpture, third grade

I forgot to share these pictures of our display when I wrote the blog post about Talking Sticks. My co-worker Jayne taught the lesson behind these talking sticks which were Tree of Life acrylic paintings on canvas boards. They were done by middle school kids. Aren’t they gorgeous?

A display wall of colorful abstract tree paintings, with intricately designed Talking Sticks arranged on a table in front. Display case with colorful abstract paintings and artfully decorated Talking Sticks. Colorful handcrafted talking sticks and the Tree of Life paintings are displayed with artwork on a wooden table and a descriptive sign.
