The
boys have deemed themselves far too old to do anything like helping. Very good at asking for me to do some
pavers for them though. |

Yes, my
children helped wash the glue paper off the back of the vitreous glass and we
used a blow dryer to speed up the drying process. |

No
children assisted me as we do not have children. However, Chris’s two young
nephews Gregory and James (13 and 12) watched me for a while and I asked if
they would like to try mosaic. Their response was most enthusiastic so I set
them up in the studio. I did give them the option of doing their pieces on
mesh but they preferred to make them as wall hangings for home. We drilled
holes into ceramic tiles and strung picture wire through the holes before
they started so their finished pieces could be hung and they had a great time
gluing down ceramic tile chattering away to themselves.
It was great company while I worked on my piece. A couple days later we
grouted their masterpieces and it was satisfying for me to see their faces
light up at the change grout can make to a mosaic. I regret not taking
pictures of the pieces as they were very good for a first try. |

Yes- I taught a children’s
workshop and at the end of the workshop the children worked on the tiger for
the mural. Most of the children are members of the Fireflies of Acadia Parish
– a group that does torch work. Most are also in a gifted class. They range from
age 11-13. They all received “Wildlife Warrrior
wrist bands that I received when I sent a donation. |
