Fall 2009 Classes

The upcoming classes that I'll be teaching this fall are an Introduction to Animal Sculpture Class through Pterodactyl Philadelphia (to be held in my studio...come check it out!) and Sculptural Forms through the Fleisher Art Memorial. Can't wait!!!

Now I must collapse from tiredness...I think all pregnant artists should be given atleast 3 assistants, paid for by our tax dollars. I vote yes to that...
