Wow! What a little epoxy, a quart of varnish, and a lot of loving care can accomplish! Once the inside of the boat was sanded and cleaned out, I ran off and left the boat in Martin’s garage. He says that if I leave it there he will continue to find things to do to it! He is having some fun with it, I guess. After varnishing the interior twice, he has done some amazing reworking of the rigging, including building a really cool seat for it. I have some before and after photos to put up eventually, but I’ll bet the next shots of it will be in the water as we are planning to take it out for the first rowing lesson Thursday. I am excited! For now, I’m tidying up the studio and setting up for the art class. Today’s big news is that I am getting more teaching work. In addition to classes at the Ozark Folk Center and Clear Spring School this year, I will be teaching at Eureka Springs School of the Arts next summer and my home school students would like to continue doing art class with me as an after school activity this fall. I’m lucky to get to work in a variety of media and with students of all ages.
