Here's sincerely hoping all is well for you on your end and that you have come out on the other side and today finds you strong and as well as can be under the circumstances. I did try to visit your blog, but it's not letting me look. If I may I would love to though -- do I need to join your site or otherwise somehow get around your security settings? Let me know :-). In any case, thanks so much for the note and all your kind words, Nancye -- here's wishing all my very best in health and wellness to you... <3Patiencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762943370256912680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2609222692340777108.post-43372953174037264412012-05-06T07:27:24.998-07:002012-05-06T07:27:24.998-07:00Dear Artlover, a pleasure to meet you, fellow Love...Dear Artlover, a pleasure to meet you, fellow Lover of Art :-) -- thanks so much for visiting my blog and leaving the lovely feedback for me -- much appreciated! :-)Patiencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762943370256912680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2609222692340777108.post-90032252879494735832012-05-06T07:24:11.949-07:002012-05-06T07:24:11.949-07:00Thank you for the nice comment, Valeri!

Indeed, I'm hoping these art journals will become keepsakes for the kids, to recall our class and their classmates -- and I want to gift them each with a special art piece of my own just for them -- just a little something to always remember me by :-).Patiencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762943370256912680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2609222692340777108.post-78182087261823945712012-05-05T11:37:31.209-07:002012-05-05T11:37:31.209-07:00I too went through cancer in 2010.

They really seemed to 'get it' -- seemed to appreciate the re-purposing aspect to it (they all brought in old discarded books to create their journals), plus it's been useful for when students finish earlier with projects than others -- they always have their journal to fall back on so that they aren't just sitting around bored with nothing to do. So it's been practical as well as creative! ;-) In any case, thanks again!Patiencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762943370256912680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2609222692340777108.post-79438192723534506302012-05-05T05:58:26.846-07:002012-05-05T05:58:26.846-07:00Thanks April!

I really do love using literature as inspiration -- books speak to me so much, and creating art based upon them really helps me process my experience and feelings! I might have to continue even after my little project here is over -- I've long wanted to do a series based on Shakespeare, plus more modern feminine characters such as 'Blanche DuBois' and 'Ruth' from the 'Book of Ruth', etc etc. As for my students, half of them are high school age (those are the ones for whom I'm doing the literature-based entries) -- one of them is 6'-4", so not so 'little', lol! But really, they have done a wonderful job in class and so it's truly been a joy working with them.... :-)Patiencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762943370256912680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2609222692340777108.post-42262300878947456342012-05-05T04:24:09.778-07:002012-05-05T04:24:09.778-07:00What a gift you must be to your students!What a gift you must be to your students!rose AKA Walk in the Woods - she/herhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05697387190111527024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2609222692340777108.post-82314069366254916922012-05-05T03:35:56.101-07:002012-05-05T03:35:56.101-07:00Love everything here--she's beautiful, and wh...Love everything here--she's beautiful, and what you're doing with your students is such a great idea.Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16471868216912351266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2609222692340777108.post-85455122705468282432012-05-04T23:19:00.187-07:002012-05-04T23:19:00.187-07:00Such a interesting idea.
