This George Washington statue is a massive sculpture by Horatio Greenough commissioned for the centennial of U.S President George Washington's birth in 1832.
The U.S. Congress commissioned Greenough to create a statue for display in the U.S. Capitol rotunda. When the marble statue arrived in the Washington, DC in 1841, however, it immediately generated controversy and criticism. Many found the sight of a half-naked Washington offensive, even comical. The statue was instead located to the east lawn of the Capitol in 1843.
Disapproval continued and the exhibit was moved to the Patent Office several blocks to the north. In 1908, Washington was finally brought back indoors when Congress transferred it to the Smithsonian Institution. It remained at the Smithsonian Castle until 1964, when it was relocated to the the National Museum of American History where it remains today.

Today Statement #33:
"Today I will create something that did not exist before. I will work side by side with my hooligans and soak up their laughter as I watch their genius minds at work because nothing makes me feel better than the soothing sounds of their giggles combined with creating something new."
We created bookmarks for my lesson on Sunday. Among other things. Like messes. :)
Quilting circles tested on an extra block from the BIG quilt I'm working on...I have to do 30 of these on my domestic machine.
Necklace made with Spanish moss sprawling out from her neck with small shells hanging from the moss. A large clam shell rests on her chest, creating emphasis there. The piece was made for "Mad Mia" as she was known to the people in Glynn, Georgia in the late 1800s.

The bright yellow in the upper right and the pink and yellow in the bottom right have since dried. It was mainly gel medium so it has dried clear -- not the color seen in this photo.
Our Maker Art class created a Haunted House in fall 2016. In this after-school workshop at the Lycée Français, students ages 7 to 10 built a fantasy world together, with magical creatures, ghosts, witches and other spooky characters.
We combined arts and technology to bring their creations to life: each student created their own room in our haunted house, and animated their characters with motors and simple mechanisms, adding lights and sounds to tell their stories.
Students started by designing their rooms and characters, and built them in their own cardboard ‘wonderboxes.’ We then asked them to sketch up their individual visions of the Haunted House and combined them together. Children worked in teams to build some of the more complex features: a clock tower, an elevator and an animated graveyard zombie, all powered with Arduino boards.
I’m very grateful to my associate teachers for this class: Sarah Brewer and Edward Janne were amazing partners and empowered our students to create their own interactive art, helping them bring their ideas to life in a playful way that made learning more fun.
We taught this class weekly at the Lycée Français in Sausalito, with 8 school students in grades 3, 4 and 5. We met every Thursday at 3:30pm, from September 15 to December 8, 2016. Many of the materials we used in this class were prepared at Tam Makers, our makerspace in Mill Valley.

In Daved Allen's book, Getting Things Done, he mentions that some of the most useful desks consist of a solid core door on top of a pair of filing cabinets. I think this would make a good alternative to using a door.
