Here's the info that was in our April newsletter (without the spelling errors that I hope no one noticed...), plus a few extra things going on in our lives.
As for me, I have just started a 28x8ft mural that will be installed in the Lobby of Westwood High School this May, and will be the Class of 2016's graduation gift to the school. This will be the biggest painting I’ve ever taken on, as well as the biggest thing I will have ever installed. The mural is made from 7, 8x4ft MDF panels (which are MUCH heavier than anticipated). They are currently taking up about half of our kitchen and hallway allowing me to only paint 2-3 at a time. I'll be posting process photos to my Instagram @saramsense and, of course, will be posting updates here!
This is my first year being a part of their Little Artist BIG ARTIST program and I'm really loving it. I mentor my 5th grade little artist 3 hours a week for 10 weeks. During that time, we create two pieces of art that will be displayed in two shows, a spring show that I will also be displaying a piece in, as well as a winter auction at the Cherrywood Art Fair. My little artist will be showing her first ever relief print (above) and one other relief print, while I will be showing one of the two prints below.

The work I'm putting in this show is still undecided, so I'm excited to see how it will all come together and I hope to see a bunch of people there supporting local art and creativity!!!
