Saturday's Inspiration - Children

The Palmer Arts Council www.palmerartscouncil.org "Make I And Take It" event was so much fun this is what the kids made in my assemblage class. Basically I threw my junque on the table with paint, glue, cigar boxes, Altoid tins, hot glue gun, a whole plethora of objects and just said go for it. It was the mess that attracted them I think, plus there was the added bonus of me getting rid of a bunch of junk. They were proud of thier crazy creations and even wanted to put them of e-bay. The parents just said; ok???

The Strange Wind by MAX

It's a strange wind today
It blows my body away
It's a strange wind today
It's a strange wind


It's so strange to me when things work out.
I often ask myself, when I am working hard and doing all the right things, why am I so surprised when stuff actually works out?
Well I am going to be deliberately vague because I am superstitious,
experience has taught me not to brag or boast because Karma is always listening.
Thank you Great Spirit for prayers answered, I'm blown away.

8:44 P.M. We went to Max and Jacksons Soup and Science Night to raise money for Washington D.C.
I bid on some cool looking brown slip on swede shoes with lots of tread and won the bid for $12.00 but when I put my new swede shoes on they squeak!!! You see Karma was listening.

Too Cute for Words

I can't help it I'm having a proud Grandma moment. These fingerprint characters are by my gra,ndson Jackson are just the cuttest little things I've seen all day. He is soooooo talented. Lately I've been looking at artwork done by children and I'm getting blown away by their simple straight foreward honesty. Later we all forget how to be innocent and how to communicate as a child. I wish that kind of inspiration could be canned.
