The school district has invited us to participate in this years high school art show!  If you would like to have your work from my class on view in the district office please bring it back to school!  Only high-quality work (must have received an A) can be put in the show. And if you bring in your best piece by May 13th, I will offer you blog make up credit!

My boyfriend just got home form Japan, and these are some of the photos... LOTS OF ORIGAMI! These are OUR cranes, flying on the bullet train in Japan :) you thought the cranes were hard.... These are from a Origami Museum! more pics and videos, stay tuned :)

Still excited to see how this "wall of shame" will turn out.  But as I begin planning for our last project before the free-choice final, I would like to ask you guys what you would like to do!! Leave your ideas as comments :) p.s. for the free-choice final, you can revisit any technique you have learned all year! p.p.s. bring me a piglet like this guy and you'll probably get an A in the class...;D

getting real excited to see how these turn out!  Look at what we've got so far :) Can you guess what these animals are going to be?

http://www.hellagoodbuys.net/shoppe/ Check it out!  We are selling wristbands (that I and my friend Amy made) and including the extra cranes you made, to raise even more money for Japan. More than 30 packages have been sold already, guys! GO US!

Check out this site, which offers info on many extinct animals (including ones you all are making out of paper mache!) CHECK IT OUT! stay tuned for photos of you work in progress :)

Jason from 2nd period made this great short film encouraging people to donate money to the red cross and receive cranes! Share with your friends!
