CCC Art Instructor Michael DeRosa with art students from Cherryvale High School.
Coffeyville Community College art instructor Michael DeRosa has been making the rounds providing program demonstrations to local high schools.
During his visit to Cherryvale High School, DeRosa provided a live chainsaw art demonstration and cut out a large fish for the students. While visiting with Independence High School and Field Kindley High School students, DeRosa demonstrated the process involved when working with clay in a potter’s wheel demonstration.
Coffeyville Community College’s art program affords students the opportunity to explore a variety of mediums including painting, photography, ceramics and chainsaw sculpting to name a few. Student projects from the chainsaw class can be viewed in the sculpture garden located at the corner of 8th and Beech streets in Coffeyville.
