Another Great Show!
It is always a pleasure to show off the wonderful works of art my students display at each and every exhibition that we have held, and this weekend’s Artist Showcase was no different – The crowd of students, parents, family and friends that crowded into the studio to view our “gallery” filled with amazing artwork were immensely impressed with the talents of our students. There was a vast range of media displayed, from fuzzy “Baa Baa Black Sheep” pieces from our two and three year olds, to pastel landscapes and Japanese watercolor paintings from our portfolio students.
As always, it was a great show, and I am so happy to have the pleasure of working with some terrific teachers and such talented kids!
Thank you Dan and Simone!
