Prioritize Flow Over Repetitions

I just did a workshop in Michigan and we made a piece of burnt toast named Burnie that was very small and rich but happy, even though it was completely black and burnt. It was richer than Bill Gates and it turned out that it was in Martinique, which is very sunny, so that is why it was burnt, from the sun! Sara from Detroit, Michigan, drew Burnie and it is always so much fun to see grown adults gasp and clap when the artwork is revealed to them. There was so much affection for this artwork and the discussion of the details of the art just goes down effortlessly and happily. Just pointing, talking about whatever comes to mind, and relaxing.

  Thank you for wetting my appetite to try out more and more of this!
  
  I did an OWI with my grade 5 and they loved it. I had every student draw so that I could unobtrusively look out for a good artist. I detected a girl who is shy but brilliant at drawing and asked her after the lesson if she would be willing to redraw the image in bold lines and colours at home and she did it. I used it as a kind of retell next period and the class applauded her work.
  I think she grew an inch.
