This blog is intended to encourage others on their journey into their creative "artscape". I have enjoyed many years as an artist learner, creator, and teacher. Life is inspiring, and I want to share the vantage point that I have been fortunate enough to view life from. I want to move a smidge over, and invite you to sit right next to me, and enjoy a 360 degree view of my "artscape". Join me in discovering and uncovering the creative soul that we all possess.

What kids create

Kids love to use the whiteboard! This is a picture of a "mean girl" taking a pizza away from another girl! 

A child's interpretation of the flamingo by Audobon.

Child's interpretation of a Stella- This has been a very popular art card to draw, I'm not really sure why... 


We have had a lot of crayon resists lately at the painting studio.

Collage Kids!


Collage by Student

Here is a collage by a student in my art class. I love to see what kids come up with when they are supplied with scissors, paper, and glue. They are so natural in their concepts, color, and balance. They don't use any pencils at this station- it is just cutting and gluing.  They learned about Matisse for inspiration.
