I teach students about art, creativity, and visual problem solving at Carthage Junior High. My wife is also an art teacher, and my three kids are all into their own arts, music, drama, imaginary unicorn development!

Murals fall 2015
This is one of our major collaborative projects. I select an image for each class, and I use an online program called BlockPoster to enlarge the image to about 4 pages in size. It needs to be cut out and taped together, and then divided on the back into a grid that will make at least one piece for each student. I then add numbers and a symbol to each to keep it organized. I find it easiest to work with a square grid. Each piece ends up being around 2-3 inches in size, which students enlarge to 12 inches.
