"Space Oddity" re-imagines the classic 1969 David Bowie song as a 1950s-era science-fiction comic book. Plenty of Bowie references strewn about, from "The Man Who Sold the World," "Aladdin Sane," and, for the eagle-eyed, "Heroes." Bowie's wife Angela makes a cameo appearance. Watermark does not appear on finished print. This is a fine art giclee print on acid free, 330gsm, 100% cotton rag paper with a bright smooth finish. Prints come in four sizes: 8.5x11, 11x17, 18x24 and 24x36. Please be aware that all prints feature a white border to help with framing your item. Depending on which size print you order, this border may be wider on the top and bottom than on the sides. I recommended that you wait until you have your print in hand before you shop for a frame. The perfect gift for the Bowie fan in your life!

8 Space theme Pictures to work on symmetry. 3 levels of difficulty for differenciation. No prep, just print, copy and use! For the level 1 the drawing is complete and the student must color symmetrically. For the level 2 half of the drawing and part of the other half are done and the student must complete and color symmetrically. For the level 3 half of the drawing is done and the student must do the other half and color symmetrically. This product is different from other symmetry products. The drawings are my own and are made geometrically so that the symmetry work is a real precision work and locating on the grid. The drawings are more or less difficult. This activity is a great addition to any math center and is perfect for early finisher, substitutes or homework. You may like my other Symmetry Products and my other Space Products!

Baroque pulpit ca.1750. Parish church in Dobroszów, a village in Poland. Life is simply too short not to explore the strangest depths of design, which, in all honesty, are usually the most innovative. Case in point: exploring the world of antique fish pulpits in Eastern Europe, reusing WWII stret

MANON GAUTHIER [caption id=attachment_2459 align=aligncenter width=462] Communication Jeunesse, affiche 2013 Manon Gauthier[/caption] Browsing children's illustration online, I stumbled over the work of Manon Gauthier time and time again. She instantly caught my attention with her compelling and childlike collage style. Yet her subjects are anything but childlike. In her images she captures the important matters of childhood, addressing love, belonging, loneliness, loss, happiness, sadness... After viewing a string of her works, you start to be familiar with her imagery and charmed by the endearing and innocent looks of her little characters. This is not just cute, but beyond cute. This is not just beautiful in a decorative way, but beauty from within the subject matter itself. Her images are free from conventions of any kind and I find that so inspiring! In an interview from 2009 (read the full text HERE) she tells that the secret behind the tender character renderings is that when working on a book she really finds herself INSIDE the characters to the point where she speaks their lines aloud and mimic their expressions. It's like my characters are staging a little theatre play. [gallery type=rectangular ids=2458,2453,2452] Manon Gauthier started as a graphic designer for many years. In 2006 she illustrated her first children's book to be published in 2007, Ma maman du photomaton, by Guy Nadon. For this work she was a finalist for the prestigious Governor General's Literary Awards of Canada (illustration) and won the Prix Illustration Jeunesse 2007, the first of numerous nominations and prizes to come. She says she was actually an illustrator since childhood but life circumstances pushed her in other directions until one day she definitely decided that she should do what she really loved the most. During her years as a graphic designer she had seen many illustrators passing through her office and thought: This is what I should do! After discovering her passion for illustration she devoted herself to children's illustration as well as leading art workshops for schoolchildren across Québec. [gallery type=rectangular ids=2457,2462,2461] Manon calls herself an autodidact, meaning she never studied illustration per se but had to find her medium and way of working by trials and errors. She didn't know how to use oil or acrylics and soon realized that acrylics were not for her so when starting her second book, Croque (2007), she used simple materials as wooden pencils and brown Kraft paper, which developed into her unique collage style. In the beginning publishers reproached her for having a limited colour palette - as children are known to love colours - but now her images are highly in demand in Canada, USA and Europe. [caption id=attachment_2484 align=aligncenter width=659] Pourquoi pas? Why not? Manon Gauthier[/caption] [gallery type=rectangular ids=2479,2480] A new book, Tempête sur la savane, was released this February together with Michaël Escoffier and another one, Elle sera toujours là, by Thierry Lenain, will come in April! I really love her images because I find them so dynamic and free of clichés and to find this way of drawing is something to strive for!
