People Watching

People in the streets of NYC...

Old man playing the clarinet in Brooklyn Heights (smiled after the pic was taken)

Old woman searching through the newspapers near Union Square

Punk teens in the East Village

Playground Project - Success!

During student teaching I had students create a playground sculpture using paper...

StoryCorps... What a great idea!

As newspapers evolve and the news of what's happening is being communicated online more and more, storycorps is growing. It's an online archive of bits of life stories from people around the world.

Speaking Out Against Trafficking in India through Photography and Video

When Paul and I went to Arles International Photo show in 2008, we saw this video that stuck out in our minds... possibly forever. This photographer took photos of women who have been victims of trafficking and other aspects of women's oppression in India. Each woman dressed up to express her experience.... a character of protection.


Halloween Parade


I didn't know about all of these giant paper mache puppets that they have every year. Would be a great project to create one.


Shaun The Sheep

I am addicted to this animation by Nick Park, creator of Wallace and Grommit. However, I am sad to hear that the kids at school know Shaun the Sheep as a Disney cartoon.
