new work

New painting, first in a series for a show this summer...
Burst casein and acrylic on board.

I was cleaning out some computer files and found this cool photo collage. This was a 8th grade project from a couple of years ago. Makes me want to take more photos. It's the front of the building where I work. I am sorry to say I am not sure which student made it...

I am taking part in this postcard swap. My daughter is helping me by taking a picture on our way to the post office.

We had a group of middle schoolers in the museum last week to look at their show in the Youth Exhibition Space. Such great kids, I loved working with them in their class and at the Museum.
We did the Marshmallow Challenge ( I tweeked the project so that the kids would do " tallest sculpture" in stead of structure).
Fun, and inspiring to see the challenge through their eyes.
