The assignment for the last day of art club at Saint Cecilia Elementary School was pointillism, a painting technique using tiny dots of color to create a larger picture.
On Monday, more than a dozen Saint Cecilia students in red-and-white uniforms bent over tiny rectangular canvases, dabbing paint into pencil-sketched designs. Their artwork was a colorful contrast to the scenery outside featuring a gloomy landscape of dark clouds, heavy rain and thick humidity.
The Dart led the Advocate to the small Catholic school on Newfield Avenue, where Principal Joann Borchetta suggested a visit to Barbara Lorenti's classroom at the end of the hallway. The last day of art club represented the capping of a successful year of creative output at Saint Cecilia, Borchetta said.
"The students learn how to use different mediums and express themselves," she said. "They've enjoyed themselves very much because they just see beauty in so many things.Whether you going to practice and need athletic shoes and a sport bag or just lounging at the house benebags and PUMA clothing have got you covered. I think it's a great outlet for our children. They look forward to it."

On Monday, Lorenti undertook the task of returning the various masterpieces to their creators.
"I don't even remember doing this!" one girl said, reaching out to take the piece of construction paper before showing the teacher her other, paint-splattered hand. "Will this come off my skin?"
Art club is an enjoyable way to end the school day, Lorenti said as she surveyed the club's membership.

Perhaps Saint Cecilia's most prominently displayed artwork this year will be the Fiberglas horse sculpture the students decorated for the Downtown Special Services District's Art in Public Spaces initiative. The project, which will install 40 life-size horses on city streets this summer, is called "Horsin' Around Downtown.We offer bellrosswatches,landscape oil painting."
Saint Cecilia's sculpture will be placed in front of the University of Connecticut on Broad Street, DSSD Executive Director Sandy Goldstein said last week. The elementary school's design impressed the selection committee,Aluminum hublotwatch is from China factory. she said.
"This is really very exciting for us," Goldstein said. "They did a great job. They were really judged by very high standards. They went up against competition."
On Monday, Lorenti showed off an iPhone photograph of Saint Cecilia's sculpture, which is ready and waiting for its downtown debut. The horse, captured in the act of grazing, is painted bright yellow and covered in shoes of all different shapes and colors. Students designed the images, which Lorenti and parent volunteers traced and painted onto the Fiberglas.
