Weekend with Art Teachers




What a great weekend. I went to Redmond, Oregon for the state art educators conference. I made four presentations, showing off our amazing blogspots, our website and talking about Scholastic. At the end of the day I finally got to make some art. I went to a nifty workshop about beeswax, a subject near and dear to my heart. Instead of making a painting I made this creepy fetus beeswax necklace. I wore it all night in Redmond at a local pub and boy were those cowboys confused. Fun!! On Saturday I attended an all day watercolor class, Karen you would have loved it! Anyway what I made turned out pretty cool, I love the complimentary color scheme and the line quality. I'm looking forward to seeing you on Monday.

Local 14



Well it's been a log time since I have been nervous about anything and I was nervous about participating in this show. Seven of my BFF's came out on Thursday to support me and see the rest of the work. The show really is wonderful, female artist rock! I'm happy with how my work is showing and proud of what I was able to accomplish. There is a show coming up I would like to encourage you all to participate in, it's the Beaverton Visual Arts Showcase. When the deadline comes up I'll let you know about it. I think we have a ton of work that would be amazing in this show. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Here are some pictures of the Local 14 show.
