Vesper Travels

More stuff that’s keeping me busy…

This is for a teacher-assistant who has helped 7th grade create their papier mache Greek vases in my class.

It has nothing to do with the recepient, but at the time I was making this I was enthralled by Aboriginal Australian Art.  

Another irrelevant piece I did only because at the time of my creating this, I was fascinated with silouhettes.

Below is a commission from a co-teacher for another co-teacher who is celebrating his 60th(?) something birthday tomorow. He is a very active, very well-travelled man who is an Art enthusiast. As much as I’d like to be at his party, I will not be able to attend.

 My June is so swamped!!! 

I have updated my May 27th post, with regards to the personalities/inspirations behind the paintings. Do check them out again.

It seems I can be a business brain if I do it in jest… my boss agreed to be charged for the cards. “Send me the bill,” she says.

Well, here is something what Hamish Blake would describe as, “What I lack in asthma, I make up for in passion!”

For a teacher-volunteer who came all the way from Netherlands.

For someone whose students are quite the characters, and who I was told had the most painful time going up and down three or four flights of stairs everyday.

She is a great walker! I often see her (and her husband) walk all the way from school to places I’d usually take the motodop to. 

This is for the school’s shopaholic, whose fashion tastes are quite exceptional.

This one’s for a fellow Audrey Hepburn fan in school, who is also an artist, and loves to be surrounded by beautiful things.

This is for one amazing woman who is learning Karate.

The recepient of this card is just dying of Cambodia’s heat. A cool, tundra-like climate would be an enormous welcome to her, I’m sure.

This woman will be reunited with her infant grandson soon.  

UPDATE (28th of May): I’ll get paid for the cards (I’ve actually done 10, but forgot to take a photo of the two that are not here) on Monday! har har!
