The other weekend, I made this wreath at my CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Farm. It's nice to walk by it every time I go through the door.

Gold Snowflake!

This is hanging in our office from the ceiling. I think it looks pretty nice. What do you think?

The post below about the Snowflakes art class I taught, is updated as of 12/10/12. Enjoy!

My Snowflakes/Snowscapes Art Class


Snowflakes and Snowscapes Art Class at the Tracy Art Center in Old Saybrook, CT- December 2012.












I read this book to the kids at the beginning of the class. It had some great pictures and it was also awesome because it rhymed. Here is an excerpt:

"He said, 'I'm a snow dude,
as wild as wild can be.
Run as fast as you can run-
you won't catch up with me!'"...

"Magic sparkled in the air-
the wind began to moan.
'It's very simple, everyone:
build snow dudes of your own!'"



Happy 1st night of Chanukkah, everyone!

Winter Snowscape Watercolor Painting

"The House With the Snowy Hill" 2012. Watercolor on colored paper.

I will be teaching these watercolor snowscapes along with giant 3D snowflakes this weekend in my December Saturday Morning Seasonal Art Classes for children ages 7-10 at the Tracy Art Center in Old Saybrook, CT, where I have been teaching art classes since October 2012. Starting in January I will be teaching adult soft pastels on Saturdays, also at the Tracy Art Center. I'm pretty excited about it. Today I taught people at my work how to make the giant 3D snowflakes and we made 12 in about 2 1/2 hours! (Including one spray painted gold!) We hung up a few in our office, so it looks more festive now. Be on the look out for pictures soon of the giant 3D snowflakes!
