So I've had it in my oversized and vacant head for a while that I wanted to create my own fabric. But I'm so stinkin' low tech that for me that currently means drawing my ideas out by hand and painstakingly painting them in. The hubs has been telling me for months that I outta scan in my designs and alter them that way but, y'all. This old dawg isn't down with new tricks. Tho I am suriouzly thinking that is the way I've gotta go if I ever do wanna transform these lil drawings of mine into something other than paintings. So! If y'all have any advice on scanners/drawing tablets/photoshop vs. adobe, that'd be greatly appreciated.
But! That's not why I'm here today! I'm hear to share with you what I have managed to accomplish: finishing of a wee series that I've titled Let's All Go to the Art Room inspired by this gem...
Being all kinds of old school, you can see my slow process of sketching and painting. You can also see that I use our dinner plates as a palette. Which is why the hubs is always suggesting we go out to dinner. Surely there's some nutritional value in paint, amirite? Some folks are just such picky eaters.
Tho, truth be told, I do love the process of sketching, erasing and drawing again. Would I love it as much on a tablet? I dunno.
You know, it's a sad thing about glue bottles. They always start their lives this happy...until they get a lil "congested" and a kid decides to stab the end of a pair of scissors into their heads. Tis the reason we don't use glue bottles in my room, y'all, nuthin but glue cups and crappy paint brushes for our glue applicatin'.
Oh, look. It's said glue-stabby scissors. This painting went thru a coupla color changes. Initially the handle was a dark blue...I'm happy with the lighter color.
Everyone loves a brand new box o' crayons. We don't use 'em much in my art room but I do seem to get tons of donations of them. I have a rarely used cabinet full of them! Time to bust out the encaustic crayon melter and make some masterpieces!
Another big influence on this project of mine? One of my faves: Katy Perry.
Tell me I'm not alone in my KP love, y'all. What, you got a problem with it? Then, just, deal.
By the way, I've got several more art supplies to this Let's All Go to the Art Room series so I'll keep you posted. ALSO...you'll see my Mary Blair-inspired piece that will be featured in the book If Picasso had a Zoo! More on that excitingness soon (hoping to get my copy of the book next week to share with y'all!).
Have you used Spoonflower? They will print your fabric! http://www.spoonflower.com
ReplyDeleteI've never used it but I have heard of it. That's where I hope to have something printed if I can ever finish! Thank you!!
DeleteMy name is miller meleisini i'm so excited my husband is back after he left me for another woman. My husband and I have been married for about 7 yrs now. We are happily married with two kids, a boy and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone. He started coming home late from work, he hardly care about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn't even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that lordshinnoks can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should give it a trial. I contacted him and told him my problems and he told me what to do and i did it and he did a spell for me. 48 hours later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my family are living together happily again.. All thanks to lordshinnok If you have any problem contact him and i guarantee you that he will help you. He will not disappoint you. Email him at: lordshinnokspelltemple@outlook.com OR +2349068711534

DeleteCassie, check out this blog -- Carla Barrett generously shared her hunt for new tablet-PC-software. She mentions Art and Stitch etc. Lots of info from May 2014 to around Jan and Feb of 2015.

Awesome!! Thank you!
DeleteSuper fun! And since you mentioned Mary Blair, and I know you've shopped at Pinup Girl Clothing before, I just wanted to make sure you've seen their great Mary Blair collection. It's terrific!
ReplyDeleteOh yes. That line of skirts and dresses has me drooling!! I can't seem to pick just one!
DeleteI'm a bit of a cat lady, so I got the cat dress, and get SO MANY compliments on it. Oh, and just FYI, in that collection , if you're between sizes, go down; I ordered two sizes to try and kept the smaller one.
DeleteLove that Katy Perry song and video! It's one of my favorites!! Twerking ice cream cone cracks me up!
ReplyDeleteI know, I love everything about that video!
DeleteHi Cassie,
ReplyDeleteI just accepted a new position as an Elementary and Middle School art teacher. This will be my first time teaching elementary in a general education class setting with a about 25 students in each class. I noticed in your posts you seem to have a theme you address with all grades... Like a Japanese unit. I'm thinking I'd like to have all my students grades 4-7 learn about the same theme at the same time. Do you have any tips for this? Do you rotate your themes/artists every few years so that your students learn a different topic every year?
Thanks so much!
Hi Katelyn! Congrats on your new job, sorry for my delayed response. I find that having a theme, cultural or artist movement, really helps me focus my lessons. I can create one powerpoint, have one display of visuals and books on hand and everyone is covered. I do vary the projects...but I can keep my sanity by knowing that what I'm teaching, reading and sharing with the kids will be the same. Then I can focus on supply prep! If you have a certain culture in mind, let me know and I'll send some blog posts your way. You can reach me at cassieart75@gmail.com. Thanks!!
DeleteThanks, Cassie!
DeleteHi Cassie!!! I LOOOOOVE your blog!!! so helpful for a newbie art teacher (I used to teach science lab! talk about a change, righ?) I recently read you went to Bloomington, IN. Did you estudied at IU? I lived there for almost 3 years but came back to my country (Mexico) 2 years ago... I love Bloomington, such an artsy town.
ReplyDeleteWell, to the point. With this series of faaaabulous characters, didn't you have a painters palet? I could swear I saw you had one on instagram but I can't find it either on your blog or society 6.
Thanks so much for sharing your passion. It is amazing what you can do! (I'm so jelous of your clothing... I have to teach art in a formal suit! imagine that... bah!)

After being in relationship with Elizabeth for seven years,he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to someone online and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that never believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I mailed the spell caster, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened, that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him, that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem and who is different from all the fake ones out there.

ReplyDeleteHello everyone am jesae by name, i looked forward to be a whole family again with a love spell, I actually got tired of living a depressing life. I was so unlucky that my husband fell out of love with me; he keeps threatening me with divorce paper almost everyday. But all I wanted in our home are positive thinking, love and happiness all the time. I wanted us to be good parent to our kids.When Dr. Bello stepped in with his helping hands via bellospelltemple@gmail.com I began to feel lighter on the inside, I stopped having that heavy feeling on my chest during the process of the love spell. Two days after, my husband started exhibiting some positive character. He confessed that he was thinking of me more recently even when he was with his girlfriend. I was overwhelmed when he came to me and apologized for every wrong he has done to me, I also apologized to him as well. Dr Bello. I just want to say thanks for the patience and kindness shown to me during the whole spell process. My husband and I has been living happily after the love spell, none of his ex ever comeback. you can also call him on +2348147271779.
