AP art show 2012
on monday night, march 12, webster thomas high school's AP ART class will be hosting an opening for our art exhibit, which will take place at the owl house.
we would love if it you would join us for a night of great art, food, and company.
adam milne game. be there!
so my basketball experience is not that deep. i mean, gym class in school, HORSE in the driveway, and most recently some razorsharks games.
this friday night I'm taking my skills to the court (for the second straight year) as WTHS teachers take on IHS teachers in the annual adam milne game.
it is a great event that raises (a lot of) money for the leukemia and lymphoma society. i designed the tshirts this year. bring in $5 and join TEAM STAHL. you'll have to cheer extra hard because i'll probably only be playing for about 5 minutes.
friday night - 7pm - webster thomas high school

are you on pinterest? well, if you're not... you should be.
pinterest is a great new site that allows you to make virtual 'pinboards' that allow you to categorize and save any image that you find on the internet... your favorite things, stuff you want to remember, or whatever else you choose.
you can follow me here.
i love pinterest because it allows me to save all the great art images that i find on the web. it then allows me to not only immediately share those images with my friends and students, but they can share their inspiration with me.
here are a few of the many images that i have pinned.

new work by audrey kawasaki
audrey kawasaki is one of my favorite contemporary artists. her soft attention to color & form juxtaposed with heavy black outlines, use of the wood painting surface, and creative figurative elements make her work visually arresting to me.
here are some of her new works. these are interesting because they show a definite van gogh inspiration.
you can find out more here.
