Art students in Bluffton's seventh grade created this "group grid" drawing of Vincent Van Gogh, according to Nicole Anderson, middle school art teacher.
"Each student received a small piece of a painting by Van Gogh," she said. "The goal was to duplicate and enlarge the smaller piece using oil pastels."
