Here is a slide show of my Lord of Life students' fall artwork!

Artsonia is a gallery of student art portfolios where young artists (grades PK-12) display their art worldwide. We have a vibrant community of art teachers who also share their ideas and lesson plans.

I just learned that the book I illustrated, "Can You Read Butterflies?" is the first one in the series to be offered as a hardcover book!
Not a bad price considering it's hardcover and oversized (larger than 8X10)!
I'm sorry, I'm not able to offer discounts or get free versions.
If you want to take a look, here's the link:

We’ve seen these around our yard and even in the garage! They are very small, but destructive.

The City of Brighton is pleased to announce the five adult finalists and one youth finalist for its 2025 Traffic Box Mural Project.

Adult Finalists:

• David Swartz, “Reach”
• Sabu Watanabe III, “Mountain Life”
• Kelsi Nicholson, “Sunflower Field”
• Deborah Ewing, “Butterflies”
• Samantha Pascavis, Fawns in the Field”

Youth Finalists:
• Alexandra Grein, eighth grader, “Storm of the Game”

Earlier this year, the city invited artists to participate in transforming traffic signal boxes into captivating public art installations. The call for art garnered more than 100 submissions. From these, judges selected 15 pieces and sought community input. Approximately 750 votes were received during the weeklong public voting.

The selected art will be installed this summer and remain on display for at least two years. To view the selected art and information on the artists, visit the project website: https://www.brightonco.gov/3253/2025-Traffic-Box-Mural-Project-Winners
