The fall season was celebrated with a special art project on Nov. 6 in art teacher Tiffany Sorice's class at Abbey Lane Elementary School in the Levittown School District.

Third graders studied the art of Yayoi Kusama, who often decorates her art with an array of dots. Students admired the artwork and learned how they could replicate it on their own. They took a particular interest in Mrs. Kusama's colorful pumpkin paintings, which are filled with black dots of different sizes. Students practiced Mrs. Kusama's style of repetition and will soon complete their projects after learning about tertiary colors.
