Day 2, mosaic mural with kids!

Too much FUN!


These kids are so smart, they are so eager to work and they catch on quickly to the task at hand.  We have finish all the layout, the edging and now we are filling in with hand-painted mosaic tiles.  Can't wait to see all of these smiling faces tomorrow!

ARTIST IN RESIDENCE at the Lyons Elementary school



This is my 3rd time being an ARTIST IN RESIDENCE, this time at Lyons Elementary school.  I love working with kids, they are so happy and appreciative that I am there!  Lyons is an amazing community, a father built this wood structure for us and there has been a mom helper in every class.  I will be here for 3 weeks- so watch out for the progress!

MEMORY DRESS

I have a MAGICAL studio space, where I teach my mosaic workshops.  This year I decided to host  "guest artists" to teach/share there unique techniques.  The first artist was Laurie Zuckerman, an amazing artist best known for her shrines and memory jugs.   The day flew by... I now know how my students feel when they take one of my classes.  They hold up there work and say, "I am so proud of myself & I had the best day, when can I do it again".  That is how I felt, blessed to have the opportunity to work with Laurie and eager to create more.
