Welcome

Welcome to the gallery of the Spring Creek PTA Reflections entries!

2014 theme: "The World Would Be a Better Place If . . ."

Entries were judged on Interpretation of the Theme, Artistic Merit, and Mastery of the Medium, following these National PTA guidelines: "Mastery of the medium refers to the level of skill the student demonstrates in the basic principles and techniques of the arts area. However, a well-developed concept is more important than technique. Entries should be judged primarily on how well the student uses his or her artistic vision to portray the theme." Blind judging was conducted, meaning that judges did not see the artists' names, but received the entry, title, and artist statement.

Sincere thanks to our judges, who willingly contributed their professional expertise and gave careful, thoughtful consideration to each entry.

Gracie Harding - A Song for Kevin

Music Composition
7th grade
Spring Creek Award Winner  - 2013

"My Uncle Kevin is an inspiration in my life.  He taught me that music is a source of happiness and helps to keep a positive outlook.  My Uncle Kevin passed away this week.  This inspired me to write a song about his life.  The first movement is slower and in a lower key, representing his life and trials.  The second movement is a bit faster and in a higher key, this symbolizes his breaking free of his trials.  I believe he is entering into a happier place and I dream of seeing him again."
