March Mosaics

I guess it’s a good thing I’m so busy I can’t seem to keep up with this writing… Just recently awarded an artist residency in April at the Nottingham West Elementary school in Hudson, NH to work with grades 1-5. I’ll be making mosaic toadstool seats with the little ones and Caribbean style mosaic wall panels with the 4th and 5th graders. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate spring than with sunny, bright, sparkly and colorful kid mosaics! Thank you Nan Constant!

Mosaic with Kids/Artist Residency

Today I get to meet with the youth volunteers of the Hopkinton Town Library to make sure that the drawing/cartoon I’ve done of the dragon for our mosaic panel is what they had in mind. We met a few weeks ago to brainstorm ideas for the “Read into the Knight” project; a mosaic panel for a wall in the children’s section of the library. They agreed on a dragon and surprised me by deciding on variations of gold/amber for the body. The rest of the details will be kept secret and revealed only when the project is completed!

The kids are excited to begin and so am I! It’s an ambitious project but if we all stay focused, we should be able to get it done. I’ll be at the library starting on Monday and through Friday, each day from 9:30 to 4-4:30. Wish us luck and stop by to say hi if you’re out and about!
