LSU Tiger

J has been working on a tiger in art class for about 3 weeks now. When I picked him up last Thursday, it was finally complete. He was super proud and wanted to bring it home right away. It was raining really hard, so I convinced him to leave it at the studio which was not an easy task. I told him that this one was worthy of framing, and the rain might mess it up. Finally he agreed to leave it if I promised to take pictures with my phone to show his daddy. I happily agreed.

Notice the original tiger (from a book) at the top of his work. It's pretty ironic that he had on an LSU sweatshirt on the day his tiger was finished. Do you think it's a sign?





J's teacher is amazing. He models the expectation for his students, as all good teachers should. He demonstrates on the left side of the desk while the student tries to replicate the skill on the right side. This was the finished product for both teacher and student.
