better than ever awards

Well, so long to the class of 2010 and before they get too far down the road I'm announcing the Art Awards for this year.  Just imagine an award named after each of you, given in honor of you each being the best you we have ever seen. No one has ever been a better Sophie or Hannah or Agnes or Amelia or Jacob or Yaqub or Crysta or Meg or Alexis or anyone else in our group. Because when it comes down to it, the only award that can really matter is the one you give yourself secretly when the process of making art takes you away from the everyday and your heart, eye, and hand come into alignment for a golden moment.
So guys, get out there and learn something and keep up the life-long search for that award
that really means something.

  5. I guess I am such a girl because reading this post made me tear up! I really have enjoyed being in your class these past three years and you have truly impacted the way I see the world. I have began to appreciate the shapes and the the light in different ways. To draw is to capture a moment in time, but when rendered on paper the subject lives forever. I will remember your class and you as a teacher forever and cherish that moment of time. So, as a last note I say, "For as long as I live I will never forget it," thanks for being the best teacher and mentor anyone could ask for!
    Sincerely,
    Amelia
