I was so thrilled when my swap package arrived! My favorite color envelope, and filled with beautiful ATCs! I wanted to get a great photo of each one because they are just so lovely. Mother nature has been not so nice with us lately and the lighting was odd in some of the photos. These photos are done without flash in the midday light. Thanks once again to the wonderful Lenna Andrew for hosting this swap! You can find information about her swaps <a href="http://creativeswaps.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">here</a>. Happy arting!</div>

The swap constraint is that all work must be with a sunset or ocean scheme. I originally picked sunset, which is representative of my usual palette. But I decided to make the ATCs two sided, and I did the ocean on the other side. I'm thrilled with the way they all came out!

I love that fact that I live semi-close enough to take classes with the Ink Pad at Westbeth Community Center. It's such a cool space, and I love seeing the familiar crew of artists who take these classes. It's always very inspiring and it forces me to make time to create art!<br />

Last year I took another awesome class with Michelle Ward at the Ink Pad in NYC. If you ever get a chance to take a class with her, do it! She is funny, very regular, and just lives/loves the creative process. This class was the "cardboard" journal and just so cool to work on! Mine is still in progress but here are some photos of Michelle and her journal.<br />

Back when the CREATE classes were still happening, I had the chance to take an amazing class with Andrew Borloz, who is just so great! Using Andrew's stencil designs, we created our own hand painted book cloth for two sketchbooks. I love the way mine turned out, and bought almost all of Andrew's stencils to make more of these yummy books! Here are some samples from the class! All books were created with Blick Matte Acrylics and cotton fat quarters.<br />
<br />
You can find the acrylics <a href="http://www.dickblick.com/products/blick-matte-acrylics/" target="_blank">here</a><br />
You can find Andrew's stencil line <a href="http://www.stencilgirlproducts.com/stencils-andrew-borloz-s/1823.htm" target="_blank">here </a><br />

There are several things that I need to do, creatively, and otherwise to stay motivated. So prepare for an onslaught of posts! I just returned from a conference in Chicago, which was amazing. The opening day of the conference was on St. Patrick's day, so all sorts of Irish themed accessories were available. Below are just some of the 250 pictures I took while I was there! </span><br />

Early on in some of the bookmaking classes I attended, I learned how to make a book with out glue or binding of any kind. When I teach this technique to students and other teachers, everyone is amazed that the book stays together just by the tension of the folded paper. It's truly amazing! Below is a supply, some photos and a video tutorial I made for the "No-Glue Book." Enjoy!<div>

I was first introduced to Gelli plates and using them for printmaking through a former colleague, Beth Atkinson, who presented a workshop on this process at our annual art teachers conference in NY about 4 years ago. I became so enamored of the process, and more importantly the product, that I ordered a class set when I returned from the conference, and began sharing this amazing experience with all of my teachers and more importantly, the students. The teachers love the immediacy of the work, as well as the ease of storage, and the students took to it like ducks to water. From our most prolific young artists (the AP & IB students) down to our elementary kids, we have amazing results every time this is taught and now each school has their own class set. This is a great (uncomplicated) way to introduce printmaking at any grade level and the process is so flexible that the students can really put their own mark on the work.<br />
<br />
This is some of my most recent Gelli work<br />

Most recently I had a Gelli print in a members exhibition at the Art League of Long Island. I also sent in two pieces to a juried printmaking exhibit called Making an Impression at the Huntington Arts Council. Both pieces were selected and the opening was this past Friday. I included a self-portrait done in Solarplate, as well as a recent Gelli print. During the opening, we were asked to speak about the process that we took to create the work and to reflect on printmaking as a process. I spoke about my college printmaking professor, Rick Mills from C.W. Post. He is an amazing teacher, artist and just such a cool guy. During my undergrad days I learned so much from him, and I had the opportunity to work with him again about 7 years ago.

Besides organizing my studio at home, I have carved out a small section of the storage closet next to my office to use as a workspace. The closet (which was once an office) has a window and I have parked a mobile cart in front of it, so I can spend some of my lunch hours creating. During one marathon printing session, I made about 20 double sided prints to be used for a bookmaking project. This space is my therapy room (like at colleges when they bring in puppies or kittens for the students to decompress during finals). When I am stressed out, I pop into the room and make some art!<br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA-HyjSq8DrnkeA78oJh6Sgzczwi1_XfPyVE1z4lphV5QHTcDdx0n1-1HQGK6osQ6FM1BVs7fwPYNTOFr_GiOZFm5GB6sz_zHW5xyf5SgHePjNBJJIUEnJCcPnxkHwsVAA2rTljV1WmF0x/s640/blogger-image--863174763.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA-HyjSq8DrnkeA78oJh6Sgzczwi1_XfPyVE1z4lphV5QHTcDdx0n1-1HQGK6osQ6FM1BVs7fwPYNTOFr_GiOZFm5GB6sz_zHW5xyf5SgHePjNBJJIUEnJCcPnxkHwsVAA2rTljV1WmF0x/s640/blogger-image--863174763.jpg"></a></div><br></div>Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00073035696333759201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1470310048823307239.post-10317473693347528392015-01-12T10:00:00.001-08:002015-01-12T10:01:50.652-08:00Making Monday MadnessHere are a few more videos from past classes I have taught.

When I am teaching classes, I try to allow some time at the end to have a little "gallery" showing. Everyone will usually set up their completed work and then tour around the room, giving themselves the opportunity to see their colleagues artwork. I also use this time to ask them to reflect about their own artwork, what their favorite part of the class was (as well as their least favorite!) and where they see themselves going from here. This is a great way to bring closure to the class and give everyone some time to reflect and grow! This video is from a class I taught in 2009 called Bookmaking for Artists and Educators. We made over 20 books in 5 days!

I've been inspired by <a href="http://www.deannario.com/">Deanna Rio</a> and her blog. I discovered Deanna from YouTube and her makeup tutorials, but she is a fellow creative soul and I'm finding a lot of fun ideas from her.Here's what going on in my life:</div><div><br /></div><div>-I'm cooking this <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/bean-and-beef-chili-recipe/index.html">chili</a> right now, except I used ground beef.</div><div><br /></div><div>-I just bought <a href="http://www.amazon.com/CakeLove-How-Bake-Cakes-Scratch/dp/1584796626/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1295288376&sr=8-1">Cake Love</a> because I need to start baking more from scratch. Especially for my upcoming Wilton cake decorating class (part2)!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>-I'm reading <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Freedom-Novel-Jonathan-Franzen/dp/0374158460">Freedom</a> by Jonathan Franzen. In my</div><div>quest to be more green (both environmentally and monetarily!) I'm utilizing my library card, and trying not to rack up too many late fees! The book is good, but very dense. I'm only about 2/3 of the way through it.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>-I'm going to make <a href="http://thepleasuresofhomemaking.blogspot.com/2010/04/how-to-make-coffee-filter-wreath.html">this wreath</a> this week. I have the coffee filters, I just need the styrofoam base. I may use the stapler method.</div><div><br /></div><div>-I'm making Jason another one of <a href="http://sewliberated.typepad.com/Montessori%20Childs%20Apron.pdf">these aprons</a> because he loves the first one so much.

I had one of those great-ish teacher moments during the AP testing. One of the AP Art students, whom I had as a freshman in Studio Art came up to me an said that she wanted to thank me, because if it were not for having taken Art with me she wouldn't be in AP Art now. I was very touched an moved by this. I have been teaching Art for almost 15 years now and I am always surprised the impact I have on students lives. And it is not always the students that you expect. This year is bittersweet a well because my first group of students that I has as freshman when I started working in this district are graduating. With pride I can say that the bulk of the award winners for the year are former students of mine. Even as a "veteran" teacher, it gives me a great sense of accomplishment and the feeling that I truly have an impact on theses students, whether or not they (or I) realize it.Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00073035696333759201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1470310048823307239.post-46116319546205140662009-04-29T05:02:00.000-07:002011-01-17T15:05:54.284-08:00Sun, Sun, SunAnd of course it's raining today :(<br />Work is too crazy busy now.
