Today was my first day of the Fine Arts Center Residency. In addition to having all the art students
come into the gallery for an informal introduction, I made 6 pieces of fabric that I plan to use in a new composition which I will make on site.
These photographs are a little rough but perhaps they will give you the general idea.
Tomorrow I will be giving a power point presentation to both the morning and afternoon groups. The students already asked some great questions during the informal meeting so I can't wait to hear what they have to say tomorrow.
I can't help of feel a tinge of jealousy when I see the opportunity that this school offers students in Greenville County. Their facility matches any college program I've ever visited. Fabulous!

Thank you for spending time at Studio 24-7.
If you have a talented child, give them the best
education you can. You will be repaid
many times.

ReplyDeleteTerry,
ReplyDeleteThe pieces look intriguing... a bit reminiscent of sheets of music or old parchment foolscap. I hope you enjoy your Residency as much as you are letting us...
