Womans Heart Awarness Day


Hey All!
Wear Red Today!
This morning I sent out an email asking my friends and family to wear RED today in support of Womans Heart Disease Awareness. I can't tell you how touched I was when I received your replies that you were going to "change your cloths" or where to find you when you're wearing RED and my favorite, don't have RED - go shopping! YEAH! You ladies are awesome! Thank You. All my love to you and yours and may you be heart healthy for another year!

OHS Ceramics Art Class 2008!I I wil

 
The first semester of the school year  I found my self assisting in a ceramics art class. I hadn't played with clay in years! Oh what Fun! Above is a 2 foot large pumpkin, this assignment included 2 parts. Each piece was to be at least 10 inches, the first was something from nature and the second was to reflect something         from this piece, it also had to be at least 10 inches. The accompaning sculpture is a piece of pie!
 
This is my favorite photo! The assignment called for three pieces that were alike. This student chose to sculpt the face masks. I captured the student working with the sun comming through the window behind her-SNAP- she moved her hands but I think the tools and pile of clay shavings ehance her work. 

 
Yet again another sculpture from nature, this piece is bigger than the 10 inch requirement. I think is represents the model exactly, an acorn. Its really quite beautiful!

 
Another awesome piece, each petal is an individual piece, also the stem and center are also seperate pieces. Notice the color this student used to make it look real? 
I love art! I will post some of my work later.
