Long Time No Blog

Hello all. I'm back!! I need everyone to submit a minimum of one piece to "High School Art Northwest" by next Tuesday. For this, all you need to do is name your picture, save it to the file on Mr. Helle's computer under the"George Fox" file, and fill out a paper application. You give me the application and I'll take care of the rest.  This is a great opportunity for you to gain some recognition for some of the fantastic artwork you have created. And a little moo-la never hurts.
