for a huge life long love of the black Lab. It was for her 70th birthday present. I cropped out the words because they are personal. I got a call & had a week to do. I love the pup. Acrylic

and all I had was my iPhone
I, being the perfect daughter (dripping sarcasm, i write), visited with my mother (i am blessed) on Mother’s day. No camera, only iPhone (Ggrrr). I should know by now that I should never go home…(oops) to my parent’s house, without my (damn) camera. My mom made this piece of art (that I left behind 😦…
Wednesday Afternoon art class
All my classes are three children or less. I find that the smaller the class the more I can get to know & understand their individual skills. Most of the kids come to me after school & they begin art using the logical side of their brain. They press too hard with pencils…its wonderful to…
I had to share art today
The artist is four years old. I made a stencil using a Club Cracker box & we traced it together. All the white pieces are card stock, so its easy for little fingers to handle. This was a hard project because they had to really listen to where their body parts went. This little dino…
This artist’s sketchbook has my studio’s logo
At the beginning of class we learn to draw one thing, usually an animal. The hardest thing about learning to draw is learning where to start & that when you start- to learn to see where the lines are off & how to correct them. These are things that people/kids assume they are supposed to…
Look what my art students gave to me
I didn’t want go to teach this morning, but I know once I get there, the kids always change my mood for the better. I had Kindergarten first-22 kids. We were talking about good deeds & one of the children said he wanted to make a painting & give it to me as his good…

Our Temple has Mitzvah Day every year, its a day when we help someone in need in our community. Our children & adults who wish to help all gather together lately its been working on appearance of the city, we do landscaping or weed pulling. This year we are going to visit the elderly in…
if you are an artist & you have a rich relative, ask for one of these
These are pencils. The sculptor mixes graphite with some sort of binding media (don’t know) & he can mass produce the amazing pencils. The reason I say rich relative is because of the large ones shown, none are priced lower then $75. There are much smaller at a more affordable price, I think the least…

Stained glass art project…Sophie spent spring break creating a stunning art project. Â She was given a set of sharpies & gave herself a challenge that she could finish a project of her own making within the 10 days of spring break. Â When she completed the project she brought it upstairs to show it to me….
Every picture tells a story
This is an iphone picture I took of my son & Hobbes. Hobbes was watching the sharpie go across his paper, marking the marker with his scent, when H. stopped moving it. I think Hobbes loved the marker buzz he was getting from the fumes 🙂 Also, check out my son’s art. Owl picture from…
