Right now I Have 3d sculpture book sculptures (thanks Phyl) from one end of the room to the other, ceramics waiting for a home, a still life and whatever I start with 3rd grade today.....Good luck everyone!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13532786225420048762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650247255320056704.post-28795487028385299742011-01-28T17:31:51.198-05:002011-01-28T17:31:51.198-05:00Hey Phyl!

You could review the history of my school year by undigging a pile! Seems like if I do put it away I turn around and get it out again so I just wait until the year is over! I very much enjoy your blog :)!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10753282537945207438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650247255320056704.post-34618169587136849852011-01-27T21:29:06.137-05:002011-01-27T21:29:06.137-05:00Susan, your cardboard sculptures look awesome!

I have been a devotee of his work since I bought a copy of his book The Simple Screamer back in the 80's. There is simply NOBODY who does papier-mache like this guy. I'm more excited than if a renowned contemporary artist like Jim Dine or Chuck Close or hey, even a movie star like Johnny Depp stopped by. <br /><br />You've got to check out his blog at http://papermacheblog.com/ (I tried to leave a comment but it hasn't shown up - will try again later) or his website at http://www.gourmetpapermache.com/GourmetPaperMachehome.php<br /><br />I have a lot of questions for Dan, beginning with HOW DO YOU FIND THE TIME? (He's also a teacher.) Thanks Dan for visiting my little blog! You've made my day! :-)Phylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00482775924810462890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650247255320056704.post-71984975585514776852011-01-27T11:07:01.296-05:002011-01-27T11:07:01.296-05:00You truly are the papier-mache queen.

Do you save your own or have students bring them in?Becca Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08899580461263490154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650247255320056704.post-52329451488719148212011-01-27T10:11:32.252-05:002011-01-27T10:11:32.252-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Becca Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08899580461263490154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650247255320056704.post-84245346436711037052011-01-27T09:45:01.598-05:002011-01-27T09:45:01.598-05:00I'm a sixth grade teacher (math right now, but...I'm a sixth grade teacher (math right now, but I've taught general ed too) and a paper mache artist. I've taught paper mache to many classes of kids. You are a brave soul! And you are a saint for exposing kids to this medium. I'll bet your classroom is exciting. If an art room isn't cluttered,then nothing is happening. A lot of great things happening in your room!DanMonsterManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11877136240750316847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650247255320056704.post-70263557482160973122011-01-27T05:37:48.601-05:002011-01-27T05:37:48.601-05:00Morning Phyl!

No free flat surface!<br />You can check out the 1st grade cardboard sculptures here: http://www.artsonia.com/museum/gallery.asp?exhibit=362884<br /><br />On the snow watch - we have a delayed opening for now, we will see if that changes!<br />~ SusanSusan Bivona, Art Teacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08428565768775299442noreply@blogger.com
