Silence
By Sloka Ganne, 11
Silence follows a gunshot
Silence follows a scream
Silence follows a song
Silence follows a cry
Silence will shroud the world one day

I'm Myzah De Guzman and I'm 7 years old. This is my story, "The Little Whale." I did the character illustration while my brother Mazen did the illustration background and animation.

“No Boundaries” is exploding with color, something I particularly love in artworks. The blues, purples, and greens of the piece are relaxing and seem to flow in and around the image, while the peaches, yellows, and reds of the picture break up the scene in a way that only enhances its beauty. This beauty itself does not take one form—the piece is abstract.
We at the Children's Art Foundation were very lucky to be given these extraordinary felt pen drawings by the Egyptian government in the late 1970s. Besides being unusually strong works of children's art most of them depict a day in history that still resonates: the visit by Egyptian President Anwar Sadat to Israel in 1977 to negotiate a peace treaty.
Introduction to This Stone Soup Art Activity
Halima’s colorful picture is made in felt pen. It is so completely colored in it looks like painting! But because it is made with felt pen, it is the kind of painting that is easy to do at home or at school.
What makes this picture so wonderful to me are the colors. Halima approached the task of coloring her scene with great courage.
When you want to get something done, is it better to just keep your head down and go a little underground, or is it better to make some noise and get all that attention and potential support?
Danged if I know.
One of my jobs is as an Artist In Residence, teaching fifth graders at one school about how to make clay tiles for an installation in their school.
Perhaps it's a vestige of the agricultural heritage here in the Grand Valley in western Colorado, but our school children are released for the summer in mid-May. Growing up in California, we went from Labor Day to Memorial Day, at least. Beginning of September to end of May, or early June. Here, it's been tradition to let them out in May to help on the farms and ranches.
