Fun Flowers
Okay, it’s a bit corny, but I don’t care. I’ve been having so much fun with a new project I’ve been working on and since I stamp a sun image in the center and a fun stamp on some petals, I’ve been calling them fun flowers. The stamps are generic foam stamps and the flowers are the cheaper silk flowers with four to six layers taken apart.
This is my first one. Just stamps and flowers. After I made it, I decided to make mixed media flowers instead and they are much cooler. I am still working on them, but I have to run out and teach an ATC class, so I’ll have to finish them up and show them to you later.
(The class is a freebie I’m doing for 1st-3rd graders. I’m hoping to hook kids in the area on art. We should start a nationwide campaign. “Get hooked on art, not drugs.” Or maybe a boring looking brain and a tag line of “This is your brain.” and then a tie dye wild colored brain and “This is your brain on art.”)

I love your campaign slogans!
The world need to be reminded how important art is. ANY kind of art.
It’s so sad that our schools are cutting the art and music programs.
They were always my favorite classes.
Best of luck with the kids!

Sharon,
Seriously, you should see how some “troublemakers” change when they do art. I don’t understand cutting these programs at all. School is about more than test scores.
