Another great project!

Art class projects....

Hi everyone just thought I would share what the children have been doing in my art class...ages 6 to 8

here we are in Feb...

It's so hard to believe that winter is just about over... I have been crazy busy with teaching art... and loving soooo much.... this is what we are doing in class this week...

Having fun !!

Just wanted to stop and tell everyone how much 'we' are having... I just love teaching art... it's great !!... and it's great to see excitment at every class.... the last couple of week having been doing cartooning... as you can see... thanks for dropping by...

Hi everyone... again...

Summer was crazy... with grand-babies... and company.... you all know what I'm talking about.... I spent a lot of time this summer working on a 36 week course to teach art to children... I tried to cover many topics... drawing... mixed media... to my stained glass work... to painting... to clay work and finally mask making.... the course is now finished and I have started teaching now.... I was asked to do a Mom/children course as welll.... so as you see I have spent the last few months with my nose in books and not with a paint brush in my hand...(I missed my painting greatly)... but the paper work is now done so I can move back to my beloved studio........ thanks for taking the time to check me out.....
