on the path of life

So it is on the path of life i find myself completing
the end of my 2nd week as a High School Art Teacher!!!
The experience has been interesting to say the least!
Altho i had applied for this position a while back, someone
else had been hired. Interestingly This go around;
the school contacted me!!!
So this part of my journey started 9-16-2019.
The school is under construction...
so i have a traveling "ArtCart",  materials were in storage,
i have one class on the 1st floor,
& a 2nd class on the 2nd floor,
so the "ArtCart" & i get to use the elevator....
which is often an obstacle course!!
 needless to say,i'm getting a good workout!!!
oh & the kids...the typical mix... (yes there are still "cliques")
most of them{gratefully) want to be there,
& even tho some are there for the credit,
they also seem interested.
i found out after the fact several folks at the school had recommended me for the position,
there was even community support,
as the school had folks stop by to encourage me being hired.
so me being me, i am doing my best to see what their individual skill level is, what their interest is, what they know in regards to the art world.
I am unsure when the Art Unit will be complete....
so currently using the materials i have located,
would love to do more with them, yet with out a sink or water, i am a bit limited to what we work on.
so it's the "basics" the foundational info.
I surprised them with a TEST on Wednesday this past week,
i allowed them to use some informational handouts....
I was pleased with their answers!!!
below are 2 of the sketches i did for them to look at...
answering what are the>
Art Elements, Principles, Composition,Style.
and so it goes...
My Gallery Show continues through the end of October.
Art is my main focus these days...
i will continue to share my experiences as
a ~High School teachers~
as always~ learning growing sharing as i go/grow.
hugs of love, earthdeva/molly
