Happy Back To School!

Fall is the best season! Right behind Summer, Spring and Winter!
Going to school for the first time or heading back to school is so exciting! I am looking forward to another school year of art and creativity with new and old students. This year is sure to be full of creative chatter and wonderful artwork hanging in the halls!

We will begin the year with drawing techniques. For some, simply using a pencil each day will be new. To others, the act of drawing may not be a daily practice. At the end of the unit it will be wonderful to view the progress of each student to see how his or her skills have changed.

Thank you for checking in to the blog! I'll post again after our first day of art!
Enjoy the week!

A Marvleous Summer!



Hello!
The summer has consumed me with magnificent days of warm sunshine, bubbles, sidewalk chalk, bug hunting, butterfly watching and dirt digging not to mention a little art exploration too! While I am sorry to see the pool and popsicle days gone I am delighted to get back to a routine and see all the bright faces that will be coming to school for the first time as well as the familiar smiles that I know from last year! I have some great things I've been collecting and experimenting with over the summer and I am looking forward to seeing what can be created!
