Critter Visits the Biltmore!
Remember Critter the Cow? He was one of the Lost Critter Project critters.
Then Christy's Creative Space thought it would be a fun idea to send Critter on a Blog tour. So Critter ended up taking a plane to Texas were he visited the blog of PJ Hoover. Remember all that?
Well, At Critters second stop he visited Beth's Blog and she took Critter to the Biltmore!
Now I hear Critter is taking on a new adventure. Critter is on his way to Korea!
You can keep track of Critter's adventures at Christy's Creative Space.

The Skateboard
I've always thought skateboarding was like flying, the way the rider defies gravity on the half pipe.
One of my students brought in this old board. He was going to throw it away so I asked if I could paint it.
Note: I painted the skateboard on my desk, on top of my lesson plan book.
This is the final product.
Skate or die!

The Making of 3D Moose
I know it's still Fall but as the cooler air pushes in I can't help start thinking about Moosifesto! Yes, Moosifesto, that special time of the year when moose everywhere rise up against, and someday will take over reindeer as the predominant hoofed Christmas mammal.
So, to celebrate this year's Moosifesto, I've been working on a 3D moose for the Wake Forest Moosifesto exhibit.
3D moose hangs nicely on my wall. 3D moose is coming out better than I had originally thought. This might lead to future 3D critters.
Here we find 3D moose getting fitted for his Moosifesto antlers. With an eight foot antler span, 3D moose is quite large!
A few coats of house paint and 3D moose's antlers are almost ready to go!
Next step, cut out antlers, attach to 3D moose and dangle Christmas bulbs...

Getting Ready for Moosifesto!
December is still a few months away... but I like to have some time to prepare for a show. And this show is going to be a little more than the last show cause this show is Moosifesto!
Moosifestio is going to be more than an art exhibit. it's going to be an interactive visual, written and musical experience.
Sure, there will be the classic ian sands framed art we've all come to know and love. But this show will also include, moose action figures (as seen on TV and above), the Moosifesto Christmas soundtrack and the Moosifesto 32 page full color illustrated book! How very exciting!
The center piece of Moosifesto will be this 6' long, 3' tall 3D moose head! (Seen here still in the works).
Several of the planned pieces will be interactive. For example, there will be the X-Ray Zonkey where you get to draw what zonkey ate for lunch!
Another interactive piece will be the Mix and Match creature. Here, you'll get to choose 7 different body parts to three different animals. Mix the fox head with the cat body and the elephant legs and arms!
Look for Moosifesto this December at Wake Forest Coffee in Wake Forest NC!!
