FISH! sketches










Hey there! Just to make it look like I'm doing more arty stuff than I really am, here's four sketches that I scanned to stick on some posters I made for my classroom(s). They're for posters about the FISH! philosophy, this great thing that I learned about during PD up north, and have been reading up on again. The whole philosophy is based on the workers at Pike's Fish Market in Seattle, where the workers just have a ball at work. The four main concepts, as I've sorta illustrated are (in order of the pics) Make Their Day, Play, Be There and Choose Your Attitude. I love the philosophy, as it is more or less the way I feel about life.
Also, I realized that I am fun to draw. Little kids love to draw me.

Finally got something new up here. There wasn't near as much doodle time as I'd have hoped over the summer. I have a couple of pieces from Nova Scotia that nead a few more minutes each that I'll get up here soonish, as well as a chalkboard for quotes that I'm painting for my classroom. That should be done tomorrow, but I may not get it posted until I get my 'puter back from the shop!
