Snowflakes

Ok I 'm here in the South. Last week or so ago the snow missed us and went to Atlanta. This week the snow went to South Georgia and turned to ice on the beach of Saint Simons Island. Again we were missed here in Middle Georgia.
 Monday is the big Georgia/Alabama game and they are calling for rain but a low of 33. I wonder if we will get any ice or snow? It usually happens when its not predicted.
I still have a cool product for cutting snowflakes, linking it to symmetry(both math and an element of art design) and some cool ideas about creating art with those snowflakes. Here is the link:

Summer Art

It's  summer time and the living is easy! I wish... There have been two too many deaths so far- Gregg Allman was the first. He was buried here in Macon and the fans all partied. Unfortunately one of my former art students (now a grown young man) ingested something that took his life while asleep. A lot of folks had drug overdoses and a few have died from fake opioids. The young man's family is suspicious that he may have taken one.
 On a happier note my grand children have gone one week to a Roman Catholic School's summer camp and have absolutely loved it! The camp is 6 weeks long and is themed based. The theme this year are Luaus and Hawaii. They have studied volcanoes and will create them this week. Last week they learned how to hula and made leis. They also go on field trips and visit a water park each week.
Learning can be fun!
I have created some new products:
One is a coloring workbook based on the color wheel which I use to teach children how to make colors not mud!

Another product is making a color wheel triangle for preschoolers through first grade.

Both of these will be 50% off starting on Monday and ending Tuesday night.

Holiday Christmas Art Projects

It's a rainy night in Georgia! Time to start searching for those holiday gift art projects. Back when I was teaching in a typical classroom school setting, I would really only have about 2 weeks of actual teaching time after Thanksgiving. My teaching schedule would change due to rehearsals for the holiday program and classroom holiday parties. I would organize my time to teach any gift giving art projects during those two weeks ( that amounted to two class periods for each grade). I would show art history based movies the last week of school that would tie in to the first week lessons after we returned from the holiday.
I have bundled a group of my favorite art projects that I would teach:
