*Nuts & Bolts*







I have some exciting news. I'm a teacher! well more like an instructor for an after school program. Once a week i teach Junk Art to a class of 5 kids K-2 grade. In my class students learn about recycling and how to make art out of used plastic bottles, egg cartons, cardboard boxes and things like that. For our first class we made what i call a Nuts and Bolts Collage. The kids did such a great job on this assignment, that i thought i'd share their work with you.

Mr. Robinson have you seen Meet the Robinson's?

Aww thats awesome. What a great oppurtunity. These kids are young contemporary artist. I love to see what kids can do as far as art because In a way their conception of things is Pure.

Thank you, thank, thank you!

* Brigette: Katy was the only one who decide to build up. She's got skills!

* Daron: You'll have to talk to the administrative office, also it's a pretty fancy private school, you might have to take out a few loans : )

* Thanks Zar: Working with kids is fun, i feel lucky to be inspired by them.

* Kelly: you make me smile.

* Ivan: I agree, kids are automatic artist, the create for the joy of it.
