Halloween Window Painting




Halloween Window Painting... another year done! It turned out to be a pretty decent day too. Weather held up and it wasn't too cold. I think everyone had a great time and that is all that matters... it make it all worth the time and effort.
Got a chance to meet Joe too :-)

Creative for others




Although it is not my own art, it was a big creative project. It's Halloween Window Painting. Over 300 children came out to paint windows in town. These are some of my favorites and I have not gotten a chance to see all of them. I love how the cat crackled.
It's a lot of work and glad it's over - I can have some of my life back!
In art class, we've been making masks. I made a 6x6 for fun too. Didn't get to finish it though...
I have so much in my head. Hopefully I can get some of it materialized today.

Painting the World



In art class friday, we made characters. I gave them the option of making them for Halloween or not. Some of the kids are getting into cheerleading, so that was their focus. But Jacob painted the world. I laughed when he said he was going to paint the world. "Hey, that's my job! You want tho help?" The class got a big kick out of this as we began talking about painting the world....
I have a special fondness for this Jacob as he reminds me of my Jacob. Imagination exemplified!
