A3: Last night! I’m enrolled in UCSD Extension’s Children’s Book Writing + Illustration program and I’m reading and reviewing children’s stories + books, as well as reading classmates’ reviews every week. Pictured is one of my recently-reviewed books.  #CaArtsEdChat

A4: I live it. It seems every time I draw, my style evolves. Very much need to discipline myself towards consistency for a particular project. Here’s my two latest. Left is ink, crayons + digital. Right is digital. #CaArtsEdChat

A2: Here’s an older one, Matt’s editorial comic. #CaArtsEdChat

A1: Sorry, missed last week as I was out of town. Again, posting early as I am teaching during #CaArtsEdChat. Here’s a haiku I wrote recently. Reminder: #inktober2021 #drawtober2021 going on all month. Post your art!

A4: Some of the awesome moves from some of my recent Pre-K and K classes. In addition to spatial concepts, we get storytelling, full body activity, sequencing, music, and.. FUN! #CaArtsEdChat

Reach out to your partners and ask what types of projects and topics they would like to play with. Our recent Literary Institute focused on POV in narratives. Later in the school year, we’ll host a Math-based Visual Arts workshop, based on teacher requests.
