Lunch Hour Art

Posted by Jenn Greenleaf Sep 3, 2009

Rather than sitting around eating, reading magazines, and channel surfing during today’s lunch hour, I’m going to work in my art journal! I collected some bits of ephemera while staying in the hospital with my husband, so that is going to be the focused materials used today. I’m also going to start some drafts for fall paintings I’d like to complete before snow flies.

I’m going to begin drafting the lesson plans I’ve been speaking of today, too. I started writing some for another website I work for, and it’s been an extremely gratifying experience. Not only are these lesson plans great for the after school activities I enjoy working on with my children, but it’s also providing me with a stable to work from when next summer rolls around. I can just print and go whenever our schedules permit! I love that!

I’m stumped for educational ideas related to Labor Day, though. That’s the editorial focus for another website I’m working for, and I’m running short on ideas for some reason. I’ll have to do some research for topic ideas to fill my well. The Internet comes to my rescue once again! Do you have any plans for this Labor Day weekend? We’re planning to spend ours at camp this year!
