New Student Art Blog and Giveaway

I am going to start a new Student Art blog and need ideas for a name! Submit your ideas by Friday March 20 and enter for my first giveaway! Just comment to this post with your idea (I'm open to anything, this is my advanced High School Art 2 & 3 class in which we draw, paint, do art history...the whole shebang).

SABbath! (S.tudent A.rt B.log is what SAB will stand for)

And sabbath is intended to rest and be intentional about create space to be with God and focus on him. Art can be restful or a reflection of the talent God gave you!

Sorry...spiritual answer! ha ha ha

That is an amazing sketch of Johnny Depp. What talent you are teaching.

Hello love! Your comment made me giggle...you are just too nice! But thank you thank you for brightening up my day! I am beyond thrilled to be paired up with you for the swap....I'm pondering about what to name your art blog (I will get back to you on that) and ideas for your cute short hair (I personally think you could still rock any headband with your short hair--it would make them even cuter) and I love you and your style and you are an AMAZING artist! I wish I could paint and draw and sketch! You rock at it...Its late and Im loopy (spelling??) so I will be emailing you more tomorrow (as if this comment isn't long enough).

Peeping Tom? Totally creepy especially seeing how it was your neighbor. Let's hope he has moved since.

I heard this guy turned himself in. Apparently he was the main guy in the theft of that cyclist who had $200,000 worth of stuff stolen. Ugh.

Paint Splatters,
Living Palettes,
Artists Proof,
Spectrum by Shade,
Chroma in Unity?
Sometimes we have paint without definition,
and other times we have moments without a breath.
Our class is something very special.
But I dare say that I cannot think of any words that would best fit my fellow students.
All I can do is throw out random words……

Another thought:

Musings of Starving Students

or something to do with The Muses/Inspiration, etc. :]

(p.s. I need to bring my grade up to an A, *wink*)

Nice Jamie, that's really great.
Remembered this awesome quote:
"Life is not measured by the breaths we take
but by the moments that take our breath away."
Thought it might give inspiration to anyone having a hard time with thier creative side.

The "Itty Bitty Art Committee" :] orrrr...uhhh..."Da Vinci Nine Point Oh" haha that was good. Lets see... what else "The Dirty Palettes" haha. Or branching off the last one it could be "The Naughty Palettes" lol jk. BTW so far my vote goes to Jamie lol "We Fart Art". I laughed a very long time after reading that one. I know I can think of more though. Hmmm, "That One Art Class", or "7th period Fever", alright that ones just stupid, but I'll leave it up so you can get a good giggle out of it. "Wenis of Villendorf flies South for the Winter". WOW that was random, then again, it is coming from me. "Artibiotics", oh gosh I need to go to bed, they're just getting stranger and stranger. Alright I'll sleep on it and let you know if I think of any better ones tomorrow.

Nancy Dorsner said...

I don't think i can come up with much better than what's already here...

The Art Attack?

I really like your blog by the way. fun stuff! Thanks for stopping by mine and your nice comments on my robot watercolors. I left you an answer to the paper question you had, over there.

Nice to meet you!

I really wanted to leave a witty name - and I have none! :) Maybe - "From Pallet to Screen" ?

Dana said...

In Living Color.

Just a little throwback. :) Love you, hope you're doing well!!!

Unknown said...

I think I like that "In Living Color" one! man I don't think I have a name though... I'm not that clever! besides I think you should do something that involves your students. like an inside joke or something :)

How about "Better than Wood Shop".
That's about what my H.S. buddies would say.

Or, since your students are as yet unknowns, The Future of Art.
