Stuff My Class Says

I currently work as a teaching assistant in a year 3 class and as a playworker at a pre-school.
The things the kids say highly amuse me.

  • "Can we put all these books in the bin Miss? They're DISGUSTING!" - A year 3 students reaction upon finding out the words 'sex' and 'bottom' are listed in the dictionary.
  • "If a monster comes into my room and goes 'RAWR', I get out my sword and put him in the bin! He cant get out without a key!" - A 3 yr old talking about bedtime.
  • "An alien married a house, then a dolphin married the same house, then they both went into a tornado and died." - Yr 3 English assignment.

spotlight on....

emmaklingbeil

"These are all my original creations...odd little creature's daily lives and desires...strange places in time - in childhood - where you know you've seen a monster behind the shower curtain, or your pet cat talked for a split second, then, after time it becomes a dream. "

i am absolutely in love with emmaklingbeil's work.
completely and utterly.
i love how they have a childlike look to them with an almost adult theme and feeling.
they are superb and stunning.
its like she has reached into mind and put my daydreams down on paper.

i would do anything to own one of her prints.
but unfortunately i only have £15 to my name
ah, the joys of being an art student *sigh*
someone buy me one?

i think i would pretty much sell my own mother for one of her original paintings!
THIS is how in love i am.

go visit her etsy shop HERE so you can all fall in love too.
she really is truly talented!
