WE SAY GOODBYE...

to one of my all time favorite art students,

Syracuse University Sophomore,

Karisma Dev.

Her lil' sis Avanthi took her to LAX last nite to catch the red-eye back to New York.

From there she will rent a U-Haul to drive all her stored belongings back to her new digs,

a town home she will share with a good friend and fellow Architecture Major 

that she met last school year.

Karisma,

you have been in my heart since you walked into my classroom as a 7th grader.

Your body of artwork continues to impact & inspire the young ones passing thru here on this blog.

I'm so happy you were able to give me a couple of hours with you yesterday before you had to leave.

I had a blast telling & showing you the new crafts assignments I've cooked up for this year.

Kaili & I will look forward to seeing what you will create in your Ceramics class this sememster.

I think that was the only class you didn't get a chance to take with me.  ha ha

Love you to the moon & back beautiful woman!
