Cedar ECC - self portraits

Starting Wednesday September 19, 2012 I will begin my Visiting Artist work at the Early Childhood campus of The Berkeley School. I will be rotating through the classrooms (in one classroom each week) working with students on art explorations. Looking forward to this wonderful work with with very young artists.

On September 19, 2012 I visited Cedar classroom for work on self portraits.  
This student decided to draw the plaid shirt he was wearing that day.

Sketchbooks

September 4, 2012 

Specialist classes officially start next week, September 10, 2012.  I visit every classroom to meet the students. As a means of introduction I led students in a sketchbook exercise.

The 2/3 & 4/5 classes will be learning how to deepen their practice of using a sketchbook for visual thinking, experimentation in media, and working out ideas. In these photos students are "loosening up" by experimenting with pen. pencil, and sharpie on the same page.

These are photos of of Sweet Briar 2/3 students.
