The Roosters are in the house....





















The terrifically colorful roosters are one of my all time favorite projects...they're inspired by Picasso's Le Coq...and I think all of the students were channeling his creativity when they worked on these. I would frame each and every one of them...love...love...love the results!

A week of Glorious Watercolors....













This week the "Imagine That" art camp focused on Picasso's Peace Doves while the younger set in Pint Size Picasso had a lesson on Paul Klee's Cat and Bird...they all used vibrant washes of watercolor and the results were spectacular....cheery colors for a sunny warm week in February.

It's Like Riding a Bicycle...

I took up the art of knitting a couple of years ago, inspired by my friend, Christine's nimble fingers...but stopped for some reason...and for the life of me I could not remember how to restart and cast on again...but suddenly this week it all came back to me...I guess it is kind of like riding a bicycle...once you learn you never forget.

Decisions...decisions....

Went wedding gown shopping today with Lauren...after trying on many dresses I have come to the conclusion that picking a dress is an art...but then Lauren is a wonderful artist so I'm sure it will be beautiful!
