Young Artists
Working at a school has given me the invaluable opportunity to be surrounded by children whose brains are racing around the clock. I often stop in their art class to see the latest creations and am consistently amazed by their creativity and their project execution. The students influence my own work and encourage me to think simply. Some of the best work comes from the simplest idea. It is all in how the children choose to execute their thoughts. Even those students who are not "naturals" come up with some brilliant work. I have to admit: the children are my favorite source of inspiration.

I also love working with children, and miss it very much. I envy you your job. It sounds so interesting and refreshing.
Often, I have to step back and remind myself to look at something as a child would. To have a child-like eagerness for life-to see, hear, and experience things as if it were the first time-is something that I strive to retain.
I feel it's important not to get bogged down with adult mentality too much. It keeps life fun.
thanks for your insight, Anne
