Hi there!
Happy Wednesday. Do you have a playful pet? I do! She's a kitty named Myra. Today's Art Assignment is play with your pet, observe their movements in play and then practice drawing or painting them. Pick a favorite toy, play hide and go seek, love your pet. I painted Myra on a rock. It says "Purr More, Hiss Less" Rock painting can be a unique way to add some beauty to your yard. If you don't have the supplies, simply sketch on whatever paper, with whatever materials you have. I'd love to see your playful pet creations. Draw your pet in an ACTION pose! One where they are about to pounce, or they are in mid run. Pick a challenging move and practice! If you do not have a pet, draw the pet you've always wanted. I'd love to see your creations, so start playing and get creating. Email them to me, comment or post them below. Share, share share, be sure to tell me your sweet pet's name. Good morning! or should I say, Top of the morn'in to ya!

The 2018-2019 School Year is approaching and Miss Tudor is busying preparing the art room. I can't wait to share all the new things I have planned. The first week of school, I will introduce my new behavior reward goals for the year. It's called "I'm with the Band". Every class in the school has the opportunity to earn a "Backstage Pass" for an exciting new and different art activity every month! If your class accomplishes 3 perfect days and earns a "Backstage Pass" to that month's show, that means the last art class of that month will be some sort of new and different Art Party. The Art Party's theme related to that "BAND" which is honoring a FAMOUS Visual ARTIST. The first backstage pass to try and get your hands on is for October "Vincent Vibes"! If you get to go to the Vincent Vibes show there will different performances to choose from, such as: Creating Glow in the Dark Art or an Art Day outside ! It's time to ROCK my creative cardinals!!
