Our Lady of Lourdes School Visit

I had a lovely visit with Mrs Joann Schell's 7th and 8th graders at Our Lady of Lourdes Elementary. They were incredibly attentive and asked very intellegent questions. These pictures show their artist experiments using rubber stamps to make self portraits.

It is spring time, which is a great time to start new work. This is the first drawing of a new body of work using my friends as models. It is a sketch of Isabel using the word puzzle.
