Mr. Fiske

Hello and welcome to the CCHS Visual Arts Department!

I am so excited to begin my 17th year in education and my 8th year as the Art teacher for Coal City High School. I have my Bachelor’s of Science in Secondary Art Education from Olivet Nazarene University, as well as a Master of Arts in Art from Governors State University where I studied drawing and painting.

Welcome back! Let's have a great year in Art!

Technique Mixte Painting

Here is a process video of a painting I completed this past summer for my brother. It's a portrait of John Owen based on an early 19th century engraving by R. Cooper and a late 17th century engraving by Robert White. Owen lived from 1616-1683 and was called the "Prince of Puritans."

I'm excited about our new glazes from Great Lakes Clay. This bowl was dipped in Tenmoku and Sargasso.

Here is a little still-life painting. Keep on practicing!
