What I could be doing. The second piece I ever sold was a collage I did in high school. (The first was a pencil drawing of a Frat house when I was in 8th grade- one of the guys that lived in the house bought it) When I was TA for a LAUSD Elementary School, I became the full time art teacher for the magnet 3rd grade. We did meaningful notebooks. The covers were magazines torn up in strips and glued back diagonally with spaces between each strip. Everyone loved them. I was even given the dubious distinction of being put in charge of the Holiday decorations in the auditorium for their big holiday show.                                         In another life, perhaps - after I get one where I'm writing all day.
