Why I love being a Substitute Teacher
Today I received a note from a darling 1st grader. The note reads:
My faveret coler is blue and green. I lik your shirt. have a nice day!
The note is complete with a bright and cheery flower and smiley face.
It may not seem like much, however I was only in this student's classroom for about an hour to assist with an English and writing lesson.
I love teaching. I always have. In a former career-life, I was a corporate trainer. I loved it. I educated adults in customer service techniques. Now I mostly teach 6 to 12 year olds how to count coins and identify igneous rocks.
At times I truly wondered if I had any impact on a child's life being a substitute teacher. Then I receive a thoughtful note or picture from a student. It's during these moments I know that I've touched their lives just as much as they have touched mine.

Only recently did I discover Pinterest...and I'm hooked! If you don't know what I'm talking about, Pinterest is simply an online pin board where you can organize and share the things you love. Brilliant!

My obsession with TEXTURE, PATTERN, COLOR and FORM
These are some of my favorite examples of amazing color combinations and interesting uses of texture and form. I have always believed art should be just as pleasing to the eye as it is to the hand. Enjoy!

Peek-a-keum-boo
Keum Boo is the Korean art of bonding pure gold onto pure silver. I have always admired the art and have finally included Keum Boo in my newest jewelry line.
Enjoy!
