10th and 11th grade Studio Art discussed Newton's color wheel and Interaction of Color by Josef Albers. Practicing with primary pigmented oil paints, linseed oil, squeegees, palette knives and brushes they mixed complementary and tertiary colors for separate use on paper.
After looking at paintings about music and writing students were assigned to create another two paintings, each taking inspiration from independent selection of music/sound or literature/text.

| Tertiary |
Students presented their sources while classmates tried to identify the corresponding visuals.
A modified high school assignment could require paintings based on specific text or music.
These high schoolers improvised gesture, or action painted on glass after watching a jazz and electronic music video. They also recorded printing the painted glass and video edited.
Middle schoolers animated without light tables in discarded books. Students considered how their pictures might relate or rhyme to the words randomly included and watched a video about William Kentridge beforehand. More requirements could include editing video with audio and/or visit the Center for Book Arts.
