I received my next Sketchbook Project Kit a few days ago.... not sure what I want to put in it this year. I may do another Shawn and Sean.

worn out from back to back classes 9 to noon and 1 to 4pm - plus having to get up early, etc. The kids are fun but comic book class was soooooooooooooooooo loud. those boys don't talk they yell. Plenty of enthusiasm 
In Sketchbook Drawing class Wednesday, I had the students use ink/pens & colored pencils... they are age 12-16 and are so adult. They were almost too quiet. I give them how to/samples and they just sat and worked for the 3 hours... Monday we did charcoal and pastels & Tuesday was graphite...

Tomorrow is the "Grand Opening" of The Nearsighted Narwhal. The mayor of Tacoma will cut the "ribbon". Should be a fun event...
