Kid's art


I've been teaching lots of kid's art classes recently. I didn't plan to, but it just sort of fell into my lap. I really love how fearless children are with art materials. They just take whatever supplies happen to be lying around that start making things.

Drawing on the white board is very popular with one of my classes. This is the message that one of my young students decided to share.

Conformity


My daughter recently did an "artist apprenticeship" for her high school work experience. The group decided to create artwork with the theme "conformity". Most of the students did drawings or paintings. One person created a welded metal dress, called "The Cage". This is the weaving my daughter did as her contribution to the exhibit. All the artwork is on display at the MacGill branch of the Burnaby Public Library until the end of May.
