This is a double colored face.
I did it with the idea of myself. It is like a self
portrait (that doesn't really look like me). I did
it by cutting out the main shape in orange, then I drew half of
it on a blue sheet, I cut out the eye, pupil, nose and mouth
shapes, then I glued them to the orange paper. and glued that to
a yellow sheet of paper.

This is an abstracted bird.
This is my favorite bird that I've painted.

This is a fish that I made in
kindergarten. I drew it with pencil first, I went over it
with black permanent marker, then I colored it in with
markers. This has been made into magnets, stickers, and
postcards.

This is a swirling hole that never
ends. It is made by carefully measured pieces of
construction paper glued into a swirling shape. I did that
with my art teacher Catherine Wingfield-Yeatts. It is in a
pattern that goes in a very interesting order.

This is a bird that I did with my
friend and art teacher Catherine Wingfield-Yeatts. I drew
the bird and painted it. It is a brown black capped
chickadee.

This is Starry Night by VanGogh.
The tree is 3-D and the town is on black construction paper with
pastel houses on it. The moon and swirly stars are pastels
also. The background is watercolor and you can see the
pastels because they are resistant.

These are poppies that I did using
my hands for the flowers. The red part is the heel of my
hand. The black bits are my thumbprint. The thumb
part is the seeds of the poppy. We did this when we were
studying Georgia O'Keefe.

Another bird. This one's
more colorful and getting ready to fly.

|
This is a maple tree that I did
whit blow painting using straws. I did it in my school art
class. We made the leaves using clay stamps that we
made. We made the clay stamps by carving the print.

This is my school teacher's name doubled and
turned into a strange face. Can you guess her name?

|
This is a lamp from dark blue to white.
I colored the lamp as you see it, I flipped the page over and
did the exact same colors for the background but upside down.

This is a picture using a clear wax crayon
that I painted over with watercolor paint. The clear
wax is resistant to the water in the watercolors and that
is why it shows up. It is a space picture, moon, stars and
asteroids.

This is a tree on a mountain with yellow rocks
around it. A red blue and brown bird is flying over
it. The light is shining on the right. |
