CONGRATULATIONS ARE IN ORDER

Oh my,
I'm a bit tardy by two whole years announcing the top most senior artists
of the Class of 2017.
I just found this unpublished post tonight.
I apologize to all you seniors from 2 years ago.
It was super fun to go back and re-read this and feel the fond memories come flooding back.
Much love to you all!

SENIOR AWARDS BANQUET NITE

2016-2017

SENIOR RECOGNITION FOR THE VISUAL ARTS

What a wonderful 37th year it's been with this years crop of seniors.

Sweet and hard working, 

using their critical thinking skills for well thought out designs,

and improving their craftsmanship with each successive project. 

Polite, kind and respectful,

well,

 most of them anyways.  ha ha

And very artistically talented with several going onto some of the top art schools in the nation.

Know that I am so very proud of all of you,

 and I hope you will keep in touch so I can follow your career and the path you take in life.

I wish you much luck with love,

it's a tricky business.

Learn from your mistakes,

unlike me,

and find a profession that brings you great joy and happiness,
like me.

The best to you all Class of 2017!
