New Eyes

One thing that is so wonderful about teaching art, is watching as students begin to see the world in a new way. Colours and shapes take on new meaning. It becomes almost impossible to be bored. I have happily studied the negative space shapes in waiting room plants. I enjoy pondering the soft and hard edges that happen in clouds. I find continual delight in the changing of colours in our Canadian seasons. To discover painting is to find new eyes!
