What I found while going through every bin of paper looking for Shepherd’s Play music… Old sample illustrations for a job I decided not to take. At the time I agonized over drawing page after page of hands, and thought I wasn’t doing a very good job with them. Now I think they’re not so bad…! (I did end up finding the music as well!) #knittingillustration

One week (survived 😉) of substituting for Grade 5 in addition to teaching all of my regular classes. Geometry is so much fun to do but free-hand geometry is particularly challenging! It’s a completely different experience to find these movements out of our own selves as opposed to with a ruler and compass, which the students will get to use next year. The challenge lies in learning to accept our imperfections and the greater reality is that the “perfect” circle lies only within our imaginations. I was reminded so often of my own classmates and their particular shading styles, especially you, @ssmark ❤️ PS Drawing knitting stitches is like doing form drawing so I put some on the board. #waldorfgrade5 #waldorfeducation #freehandgeometry #waldorfgeometry

No two paintings are ever the same. Usually I never finish my in-class demo painting, and it’s usually not as good as my at-home one. But when it IS equal to if not better than the original, that’s when I tell my students it’s a sign of an exceptionally good painting class. Because it means that we were all really in it together. #buddhaunderthebodhitree #buddhatree #waldorfeducation #waldorfgrade5 #ancientindia #waldorfpainting #waldorfschool #waldorfwatercolor #stockmarpaints #waldorffifthgrade
