demos

A demo in a few techniques and stamp people, using postage stamps & junk mail collage for bodies. Experimentation and exaggeration was the goal, and then they were off!

I apologize, I didn't get everyone's work,

That was a great found, Jacki. I think I would have enjoyed your mixed media class. You had a lot of talented students, so you enjoyed it too? When we see that our students are successful we know we did a good job.

Thank you Elenor, yes, it was warming to look back at these talents artists. They were so kind to go along with my often silly direction, but mostly my goal was for them to have fun! And, yes, I did too.

Thank you Carrol, yes, you were and are, always so talented. As you know, I love your sense of humor, too often missed by others. I think they are intimidated by you eventhoiugh you are so open and giving. All that talent is scary to some?
