What a fabulous idea for that group! That’s the way to start educating those that help educate students about the choices they have. Love it. #amplifyaldineart

Digging this work! Be sure to post when student artist is complete. Would love to read his/her artist statement. Beautiful subtle colors, purposeful editing and interesting composition!

Wow, a 3,400 year-old ancient Egyptian paint box containing its original pigments! (Looks similar to a modern-day set!) The preserved cake pigments are red (red ochre), blue (Egyptian blue), green (a mixture of Egyptian blue, yellow ochre, and orpiment) and two of black (carbon black, from charcoal). An inscription on the wooden paint box tells us it belonged to Amenemope, who was Vizier during the reign of king Amenhotep II. As a member of the elite, he would have used it for painting for leisure. 📷 The Cleveland Museum of Art Read more: clevelandart.org/art/1914.68… #Archaeology

And it all started with their Middle School Teacher seeing their light and encouraging their journey!! I was glad to be part of that journey in HS.
Throwback Thursday to the first Middle a school Workshop when my 8th graders got a chance to experience Carver’s art program 1st hand. And now those same students are seniors giving back to current middle school students! @NewmanKaileigh @CarverVisualArt @Aadelin17 @mskochart

Glad your experience was a good one. I’ve no doubt you will be successful wherever you decide to continue your education! In state, out of state, or around the corner!
Today was National Portfolio Day in Houston 🌱 It was truly something, my first time coming to one of this events. Some schools relatively called my attention more than others but I loved the options and variety of places.

A sad day up here in Northumberland and the North East, finding out that the iconic Sycamore Gap tree on Hadrian’s Wall was deliberately felled last night. Here’s the drawing that I made of it last year 😞#SycamoreGap

Thanks for inviting me to teach new and veteran teachers some tips, tricks, and ideas on how to develop Contour Drawings into expressive works of art. Always fun!
Continuous blind contour drawing- hand eye coordination to building drawing skills. Art teachers model being brave & taking risks just as our art students do in the art classroom! And learning best practices together @tdavis_aldine @delgadong94 @KatyRoede #AldineConnected

The circle of inspiration continues. I recognize many of the student helpers as the participants in previous MS workshops. Learners become the teachers. Education at its finest.
Middle School Art Workshops were a B L A S T! Students engaged in relief and resist based printmaking, made some extra spooky masks, and worked with external flashes and composition in photo. Thank you guests and Carver student leaders! @AldineArt @drtrob3boys
