Love this book DEAR STREET by Lindsay Zier-Vogel and Caroline Bonne-Muller from Kids Can Press. It's great for talking about different seasons. I recently included some teaching ideas for this one on my blog: andrea-mack.blogspot.com/2024/09/lear...#kidlit#cankidlit#edusky

I mostly use matte medium. Sometimes gel medium for thicker pieces.

Here's one from playing in my sketchbook this week. Also the "art play" ones you mentioned. #artplay#mixedmediacollage

Torn paper collage with textured and torn papers in shades of blue, black and grey with pieces of asemic writing

The trick to good pie crust is being gentle when mixing and rolling, according to my mom whose pies were delicious. I have inherited her ability to make flaky and tender crust but not her skill at rolling it out so I always have a pieced together bit somewhere.

Ripped paper collage is so much fun! I did a little of that this week myself. I also discovered some baby guppies in my fish tank. Watching my fish is a quiet moment of reflection every day.
