Back to School Painting

I love to paint and finally did to help relax before the big rush next week. Our school also painted together.  This is our second annual paint to decorate the faculty lounge. This year's theme is hearts.

Teacher Retreat- Painting Fun

I am trying my best to wrap my brain around going back to school.  I am so thankful that we have a teacher's retreat to start this whole back to school process.  It is a gentle way to start the push that the new school year brings.  This year I had the honor of sharing my love for technology.  I love technology and am constantly amazed at all there is to do and see.  My favorite things to learn this summer were on coding and Google Lit. trips.  I can't wait to use them in the classroom! Until then I wanted to share some of the cool stuff my school did for some team building.  We had a painting party! Almost all the teachers were there and we all painted together.  I was supposed to help teach but ended up mainly painting-oops! 

My Final Painting

The Teachers of Painting

My Fourth Grade Team

I have been painting!!!

One of my favorite things to do is paint.  I sadly don't get to do it that often, with young ones around the house, but this year I really got in to it and my husband encouraged me!! 

 

 

These are gifts I painted for the Specials staff at my school.  They were from my daughter and myself.  Our school teaches these character traits.  I love them so I decided it would be great to display them. 

 

 

I am redoing my daughters playroom and painted this sign to go by thier kitchen.



This piece is my first piece that someone asked me to paint.  I really liked how it turned out!

 

This is picture was created because I had a student leave and I wanted to give her a gift to remember us all by.  The kids picked their color of paint to best match their skin and I added the little details.  I sure am going to miss my friend, but I know she will do great where ever she goes!

This was painted for my mother-in-law.  I love that part of our family so much and have wanted to paint something like this for them for a while.  I like how it turned out, but there are some things I want to do different.  I have started on another project for her, but no telling when it will actually get done ;)

These are the gifts my students made for their parents.  I added all the little details to 22 of them!

This is one of my favoirte pieces I painted this year!  My 2nd cousin got married on Dec. 22, so I painted this for her.  I just love it and their wedding was beautiful as well!!
