The girl who can't stop painting owls....

I keep painting owls. I just can't stop!!! 

Here is my entry for this year's Spiva Small Works Auction.
Remember last year's entry:

And I've started a circle journal with some friends. Angela. Jari. Jen. I've done the first two pages...but I also decorated the cover:
Close up!
This one might not quite be finished, but he is part of the collection. Retro owl....Inspired by Mati Rose.
Night owl.
Baby blue owl.
And Winston. One of my first owl paintings. This guy is really huge!! One of my favorite owls ever.

I am only motivated to paint occasionally...and I know I will never be Monet, Picasso, Cassat, Frida or any of those great, dead artists who would NEVER appreciate my work...but I think...Eric Carle would like it...and that is okay with me.

So I just keep painting owls.

Because I think it is important for an art teacher to make art. And show it.

So I had a show this weekend at a local art walk. And one of my (4th grade!!!) students also had art on display there also.
