Special tribute to Leslie Johnson


It's every teacher's hope that their students will not only learn something but also have fun in a class. Today I had such a lovely gift.

One of my students from a class on paper painting that I taught in mid September up in Wisconsin was kind enough to share her finished painting.

The unfinished painting is a photo I took during the class. She's come a long way, baby!

Isn't it spectacular!!!? I am so proud of her.
You will remember from early posts on this technique (based on Elizabeth Nelson's work) that we painted our own papers (in acrylic) and using the papers we make a collaged painting.
This was done on 11 x 14 canvas board.

I sure would like to see Leslie do another one!!!
