Art students this week have been working on artist maquettes. This project is part of Christine Obeid’s Art and Design class at Tecumseh High School.
A maquette is a model for a larger piece of sculpture, created to visualize how it might look and to work out approaches and materials for how it might be made.
Students have been creating miniatures in honor of famous artists, including Vincent van Gogh, Marc Chagall, Rembrandt, and Leonardo da Vinci.
They’re working together to create these pieces and are showing their creativity in their work.

Have you had the chance to download the Tecumseh Public Schools app? If not, it’s so easy to do.
Where to find the app:
• For Android: https://bit.ly/3oPn4BI
• For iPhone: https://apple.co/2LU0Obu
We’ve made some changes to the app. When you first load it, the ‘Home’ page features the ‘Live Feed’ and ‘Events.’ However, you know have the ability to make the app appear like the desktop version of the website. Just click ‘Menu’ and you’ll see the options bar. Click ‘Full Website’ and you’re good to go!
We also want to make sure you’re aware of the ‘Push Notifications’ feature. This feature keeps you in the loop when the district pushes out information through the app. That way you will not miss any updates from the district, like brand new stories, Live Feed updates, school closures and more.
For more information on the ‘Push Notifications,’ follow the steps on the attached graphic.
