PCMS March Lunch Menu

Ms. Binegar’s 8th grade artists at Pleasants County Middle School recently completed self-portrait cartoons inspired by the expressive style of Javier Calleja. Students explored exaggeration, proportion, bold outlines, and simplified features while creating wide-eyed characters that reflect their own unique personalities. Each piece shows creativity, confidence, and a strong understanding of contemporary art. We are so proud of these talented young artists!
