The Dead Bear

ALLURA MCCULLER
Brenna Kitchenman is a sophomore. She took her first art class last year because the art classes at her previous school, St. Clair, were cut out of curriculum. She loves creating art in her free time.

This piece is entitled “The Dead Bear.” She worked diligently on the project for a week and a half. Her favorite band, “Grateful Dead,” inspired her to create this. This bear-shaped mug is supposed to look like their logo.
