Maytime Masterpiece Auction
Hey NT!
Last week alongside Maytime Melodies, the art dept held the 2nd annual “Maytime Masterpieces” visual art auction. Take a look at the work below and let me know if you’d like to outbid anyone in our community. Bid increments are $20.
This dragon is from the very talented Jayson Kim. It is ink on paper. The current bid is $40. Jayson’s most recent piece won the Youth Art Edge grand price and they are negotiating a purchase for $250. (last year’s grand prize winner was from NT as well, btw. Another fun fact: their winner from the year prior to Covid- the last year they did in person shows prior to last year, was from Central Tech…I’m doing some horn tooting folks).
These bridges are from the very talented Jayson Kim. It is ink on paper. The current bid is $80. Jayson’s most recent piece won the Youth Art Edge grand price and they are negotiating a purchase for $250.
This tempting breakfast scene is by the effervescent Selina Lee. The current bid is $60.
This acrylic painting is by Alisa Lukinykh. It is an ode to Russian culture and is currently priced at $20.
Please come see Ms. Boon in room 227 if you’d like to see any in person prior to bidding.
