I could just start with one, and go from there. I could share my progress here and maybe blog about the process. It has possibilities and merit. Just might do it!

Both of my kids have inherited the artistic gene from me it seems and I take great delight in passing on techniques I learned to them. Both of them were honored this spring by having some of their work included in the all school corporation art show. They both received blue ribbons and certificates and I was very proud. I always loved working with markers too. I don't know Darlene. One of these days I may not be able to help myself. If I remember right the teacher that passed away was almost retirement age.

She brought out one of those mirrored jewelry boxes and instructed me to draw what I saw when I looked into it. Both of these pieces came from that exercise and they were both included in my Advanced Placement Portfolio for college credit.

She brought out this glass and mirror jewelry box and told me to look in it and draw what I seen. So that is what I did, and these two pieces were the result. Ah yes, occasionally it creeps out when I draw something for my kids.

You hear a lot of "negative" on tv about teachers but there is much more good than bad. I enjoyed seeing your art too! Such great pieces.

Do they have pleasant memories or did I ruin their little lives?

I exchanged holiday cards w/ my 8th grade English teacher for years. My 6th grade teacher is in the nursing home in my hometown and we all made a fan page for her on Facebook. My high school Grafix Arts teacher was on FB too and all of his former students were his friends. He never told us he was sick and he died suddenly at the end of March. :(JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303475796807404950.post-38780490287397035962012-06-13T19:59:49.403-04:002012-06-13T19:59:49.403-04:00This has really made me think back as to who was m...This has really made me think back as to who was my favourite teacher, and I realise that I was fortunate to have many...<br /><br />This is why I love working with children, if I can assist in making the world an interesting place and support them in realising that they are beautiful individuals, then I am honoured and fulfilled...<br /><br />A really interesting, thought provoking post! :-)Schezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12448528071896661731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303475796807404950.post-52092361363232429022012-06-13T19:48:54.309-04:002012-06-13T19:48:54.309-04:00Excellent post--it is so nice to dig back and refl...Excellent post--it is so nice to dig back and reflect upon those that have helped us through school.
