Right now we are working on an inflatable project. I made this for an example piece. Originally it was on its side but didn't activate the space as well as upright. All my students said it looked like a sad snowman with a big nose. One of them felt it was necessary to give him eyes. Between three classes I'm looking forward to seeing how all of my students work through this project.
Today my students at WVU did a great job in the creation of their inflatables. It's a great collaborative project which teaches team building skills and creative problem solving.

All my students did a great job working with new materials and processes. The great thing is when they get to see their final inflatable projects in all it's grandeur. It's almost immediate how they tell me how much they hate the project to how much they love it. I think for all of them it's the first time working in large scale and the presence their pieces create is always fantastic.

My Intro to sculpture class really impressed me today during their volumetric wood project. Their interpretations on the project were varied and well executed.
