I was so very fortunate today to be a visiting artist in my cousin Phyllis's art class at
Pawling Central School in New York State. She provided coffee and doughnuts for her students and I provided the witty conversation...lol NOT! We connected via
Skype since I am in Pittsburgh. (It would have been nice if I actually cleaned my monitor before taking any pictures!)

| Phyllis :o) |
I have been using Skype for years since we live so far from our families but this is the first time I visited a classroom. Phyllis and I get our artistic skills from our grandparents. Our grandfather John was a painter and also did a lot of needlework and our grandmother Betty was also known for her needlework and crafting skills.

More photos of the kids in class...
The time flew by, the bell rang and our time was done. I am hoping that we can do a project together in the future. That was fun! Thanks Phyllis and everyone! :o)
Oh and my friends have been bugging me to post a photo of my two page spread in the New Art Review publication from my previous post. Only my photos were published. So here you go my friends.

Can you believe as a kid I wouldn't let him show me how to thread a needle because men don't know how to do that!
how foolish I was.:)
Everyone in my class totally enjoyed your visit :)
