**ESSENTIAL QUESTION:**

What do our paintings have in common? How do the young people answer this essential question?
Here is what we have come up with as a "philosophy" for our school of artists. In short, human beings have left an imprint. There is evidence of a community even if people are absent from the landscape. Rather than placing humans //within// the landscape, the student paintings seem to place nature //behind// human activity. We noticed a prevelance of the colors blue and green. We decided that our "iconography" should include:
 * Washington Road, Uptown, Malls/Other signs of business activity
 * Intersections/Traffic lights/Cars/The T
 * Telephone poles/Power lines
 * People/Families/Schools
