ReplyDeleteThese are really wonderful! So expressive. I love the first one, as well.
ReplyDeleteAre you getting geared up for the start of the school year or are you guys still in camp mode? I'll be teaching from an art cart this year...yikes! (Grateful, though!)
Hi Rebecca,
ReplyDeleteWe are still in camp mode.
We are remodeling the Elementary section of the school this summer. We hope everything will be ready before school starts.
I had to teach from an art cart the first year; it was not fun but somehow I made it :)
Absolutely stunning works! I would proudly put any of these on my walls at home. Congratulations! Jenny
