"In the portrait of that house, the windows are eyes or pieces of the soul almost. To me, each window is a different part of Christina's life...there's an upstairs window that has a pink feeling. That's her bedroom. I wanted each one of these windows to tell part of the whole story-they were not just stuck in there by chance. Each has its specific role in helping to explain the overall personality of the portrait of the house and its occupants." ...there is a piece of glass that's dropped out of one of the windows, and I was fascinated by the clothes that Alvaro stuffed in a broken pane so the cold wind would't blow through." Alvaro's New England resourcefulness also reveals itself in the the rope and funnel contraption rigged up at the base of the drainpipe to carry water to the bucket outside the kitchen door. Wyeth has even recorded a symbol of his own involvement with the Olson house: Just above the kitchen roof are a few pieces of white siding patched in among the gray clapboards. According to Wyeth, "Those are out of my own house. Alvaro wanted me to repair it and I did" -Andrew Wyeth Andrew Wyeth [American Contemporary Realist Painter, 1917-2009] Second of three generations of Wyeth artists.

Kara Walker operates on the premise that when you make history truly visible, both your own and that of your people or nation, there exists a challenge to show all of it, the unholy mix, the conscious knowledge and the subconscious reaction, the traumatic history and the trauma it has created, the unprocessed and the unprocessable.

Dogtrot Houses: A Basic History Originally emerging from the design of one-story log cabins, dogtrot houses get their moniker from the design’s “dogtrot”, which is a central, open-air breezeway that effectively allows for natural ventilation while dividing the structure into two separate living spaces. This gem of American architecture is particularly influential in the warmer climates of the American South, as the open space in the breezeway capitalizes on the porch's exposure to prevailing breezes in order to harness the power of nature for comfort (reducing the need for artificial air conditioning) while also serving as a communal area. Our Design Featuring an open breezeway, modern living comforts, contemporary aesthetics, and a porch on one side, our dogtrot floor plan caters to diverse needs and preferences while paying homage to this iconic example of architectural tradition. Floor Plan Our dogtrot floor plan divides the house into two distinct parts— the main house, and an outdoor, covered patio dogtrot (which we designed into a dining room), with the option of adding a third— an extension, whose use is adaptable. The main features of our dogtrot house floor plan begin with a luxurious master suite at the far end of the building, complete with a spacious walk-in closet and a well-appointed bathroom. A continuous living and dining space culminates in a u-shaped kitchen (equipped with all the modern amenities) which is a chef’s dream, while the pantry provides ample storage for your culinary essentials. An adjacent office (which can be converted into an additional bedroom), features its own bathroom for added convenience. The breezeway deck serves multiple purposes— as entryway, garage or guest suite access, or as a serene dining room, allowing you to savor the outdoors while staying sheltered from the elements. The decking extends from the front of the house to the back, seamlessly connecting both spaces. Additionally, you have the option to add an extension to the floorplan: Extensions A Garage is ideal for vehicle storage or extra space for hobbies and projects. The garage is attached to the house through the breezeway, providing easy access and added security. Or A Guest Suite, which swaps out the garage for a cozy guest suite, including a fully functional one-bedroom layout with a kitchen, bathroom, and its own living area. Ideal for hosting friends and family, the added guest suite of this dogtrot floor plan ensures a guest’s comfort and privacy while offering the convenience of two separate living areas, enhancing the overall versatility of the space. Interior Natural light floods the interior of this dogtrot house through the sliding glass doors in the dining and living rooms on the southern facade. The master suite offers breathtaking views of the surrounding natural beauty through its own floor-to-ceiling windows in the east and south. The connected living, dining, and kitchen great room allows couples, families, hosts and guests to communicate throughout the central space. The office space is set to the side of the living room, allowing the owner to work while keeping an eye on the rest of the house. The vaulted ceiling adds an airy and spacious feel to the interior, granting a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. Highly customizable, our dogtrot floor plan allows you to create a space that reflects your style. We recommend lighter tones to enhance the house’s sense of cleanliness and space. Exterior Whether placed in a rural or urban setting, this dogtrot house design seamlessly blends with its surroundings. The sleek, standing metal-seam roofing and siding combine with the natural wood textures on the decking, entryway, and breezeway to exude a modern yet welcoming charm. In warm climates, the wide doors of the dogtrot style provide cross ventilation to keep the house cool. In the winter, the functional design of the dogtrot home keeps the site insulated and warm. The exterior design is a testament to timeless elegance and versatility. Maybe you’re a young couple looking to host in-laws and friends while having easy access to the kitchen and central breezeway; maybe you’re a retired couple looking for space to host their family in the living room while working in the office; maybe you’re a new landlord looking to lease out their first property while living nearby, or maybe you’re a bachelor/bachelorette looking for their perfect place to work from home while remaining in nature. No matter what you are, here, your dream home awaits— where luxury, functionality, and style come together to create an extraordinary living space.

This bulletin board from All About Children childcare center incorporates two of the best things about summer - ice cream and sunglasses! It's a sweet design, created using student crafts, that's sure to be a hit. Don't forget to grab the FREE template at the bottom of this post! Ice Cream Cone Craft To duplicate the original craft, simply cut ice cream scoop shapes from white art paper, invite students to use paint daubers to color the scoop, then attach the cutout to a triangle shape cut from light brown/tan construction paper. Easy peasy! Of course, there are other ways to go about the project; Create the scoop and cone shapes using an ice cream template or coloring page. The more detailed shapes will make the cones stand out more when arranged on the bulletin board. Instead of paint daubers, have students make puffy ice cream cones. All you need is shaving cream, glue, food coloring, and sprinkles! This, of course, would lend a more authentic ice cream look! Sunglasses Craft Download the sunglasses template below and have your students use them to create their own pair of sunglasses. There are four different shapes to add a bit of variation! Also, while you can simply have your students cut sunglasses from brightly colored card stock, we think it might be fun to try to provide a unique art experience. For example; Use Crayon transfer art to create a design on the glasses, then cover with muted watercolors for a wax resist effect. Complete the project in small groups and {safely!} paint with melted crayons! The results are sure to be stunning! Summer Is Sweet In Preschool! Background: White bulletin board paper. Title: "Summer Is Sweet In Preschool!" Border: Summer themed trimmer or complimentary color/patterned border. Decoration: Fill the board with your students' crafts!

I have admired Zentangle from (very) afar for a while but couldn't decide what my first project would be then, bam!, just was I was drifting off to sleep last night it hit me. The segmented sections of this stamp are perfect for playing with Zentangle. Adding dark and light sections to create movement/folds in the flower took some thought but nothing where I couldn't start a design, change my mind, then morph it into something else. As for the background washi tape frame, I made that a while back for a project that I ended up hating so I cannibalized it. (Hello, Clarice.) You could totally jump onto the Zentangle bandwagon too. It's an extraordinary technique that's not extraordinarily difficult. Google a couple of zentangle images to get general design ideas, grab a fine pen and off you go. You can be sure I'll do more Zentangle projects in the future; it's like socks in the knitting world--great mobile project. The Details: PTI white cardstock, washi tape, Sakura Zentangle 01 (.25mm) pen, Hero Arts Blossom Art flower, Stampabilities sentiment I'm entering this in Casology #78 Dot, Alphabet Challenge X for X-traordinary, One-Layer Simplicity Challenge #1 Restocking the Shelves, Sweet Stampin' Girly but no Pink, and Without Words Spots and/or Stripes.
