First Day at School...

 For as long as I can remember, I have been a student. Always end up in school sooner or later:) And so now I am enrolled at the Glassell School of Art. I have been meaning to do it for a while but this semester seemed like a winner. So the first day was fun and the Professor very interesting. We got a long break in the middle of the class and took full advantage, all of us walked it down to the nearest cafe and talked art...ah! and of course there is art all around, I mean even on the roads, here look........

New Studio Pictures!

I love my new space...so much bigger, loads of display space and an awesome easel set in the wall.
Picture time! Before and after..........

Before! Setting up...

Finally, the studio looks fresh and cool.

Fun Weekend!

Summer summer, Color, color!!!!!

So this summer, a friend of mine asked me to teach her daughter art. My expression was a mix of surprise and complete disbelief! I didn't think I was equipped enough to teach but there was no deterring my friend. And know what...I am glad she made me do this. I LOVE IT! I LOVE TEACHING KIDS TO PAINT!!!

Of course this was a test run and my class was super informal. But I ended up teaching 3 children from the neighborhood, ages 6,9 and 10.
And since I had only 8 classes to be with them, I thought the best thing to do is to teach them how to hold and move their brushes on paper, how to notice the million different types of green in nature and learn about one artist:)

Today's class we interpreted Picasso's 'Mediterranean Life' and here's what we got:

Needless to say, I am super proud of my kids! And you know what their homework is....3 jokes every week:)
