Welcome to your new blogsite!

This site will serve as a connection tool for all of us over the summer and I hope throughout your senior year. It is a way for you to share with all of us what you are doing over the summer.
It can also be a way to get some feedback on your work.
As you complete your summer assignments, you can post them here as a jpeg and talk to me about them. You can also see each others' work and comment on it.
I will be checking often to see what is going on with all of you and will respond by posting replies, answering questions, giving suggestions and cheering you onward!

My first class of bloggers (2 years ago) found this blog to be a fun way to be inspired by each other, to compare what they were creating, to get timely input from me and to just have fun posting whatever was happening with them.

I hope you too will take advantage of this extra bit of technology to keep yourself engaged in artmaking and to keep your enthusiasm going.

Maybe I will also post some things that I am doing too. Contrary to my usual plans for summer, I am not taking any classes this summer and so will have to be disciplined to keep things going while I am away from school, just as you will.

Let's make a commitment to keep in touch and work together to get a good head start on your senior year. Portfolio Day comes early in the year for us and you will want to have some good work to show to college reps.

So let the (summer) games begin and... Keep Your Eyes on the Prize!
