Sculpture Artists Unite!

Artist Kris Kuski does drawings, paintings and sculpture.

Look closely at his work! The detail is amazing!

Kris spent his youth in rural seclusion and isolation along with a blue-collar, working mother, two much-older brothers and an absent father. Open country, sparse trees, and alcoholic stepfather, perhaps paved the way for an individual saturated in imagination and introversion. His fascination with the unusual lent to his macabre art later in life. The grotesque to him, as it seemed, was beautiful.

Installation Art

This piece is about a daughter's celebration of her father's life. It is so touching, well-thought out, and just plain amazing. I had to share it with you!

NAHS service opportunity

Do you need NAHS service hours?

You can make CUPS for the judges at the Regional Scholastic Art Awards!

There will be 18 judges (3 in each category). They are not being paid for their time, but deserve a "thank you" for all of their hard work and time... what better way than to gift them with a hand-made cup by a Lakeridge student??

If you think you can help out, contact Amy ASAP. Cups will need to be finished by Dec. 10th.

Make an UNKL!
