Peace world,.....Charlie Vaughn here with A super quick update,....I have been putting in A lot of work with schooling students in Fine Arts 2014-15 ....Lots of Highs & lows went on but progress was always in the making..... Between class work ,I'd manage to squeeze in A couple of commissioned projects & shows to keep the rust off of me.<br />

I 've been spending the majority of my time INSTRUCTING students (9th-12th grade) with Fine Arts class.<br />
Even though its my 1st official time teaching in A schoolroom environment , it has been A challenge and facing the highs n lows. Here are some examples of the kids work...I'm really grateful to make some kind of impact with the students of Clark High school.<br />
Peace to ANYONE who has the patience , the nerve, the insight to do this....it aint for ERRRBODY !!!Charlie V./Uptowns Illesthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02210215178801915949noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5699267808964765568.post-69295864464947016042014-02-03T19:20:00.002-08:002014-02-03T19:22:53.403-08:00Feb U[PDATE 2014<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Don't know how everyone else did, but I personally was compelled to put something together the very moment my wife text me the news of him passing. It felt like I lost A relative I never had a chance to hang out with . When someone you've grown up digging from early youth to now ...then have ALL the songs,dances & memories .....WOW. All I could do was give thanks for the gift that was given to MJ to share with the world ,THEN I used what skills the most high instilled in me to share with the world. Instead of painting ....I chose to do A detailed POINTALISM piece (all dots) . The process was literally A labor of love, & the results were ....well ,you judge for yourself.<br />
To the CREATIVE LEGACY that Micheal Jackson left us with is MASSIVE , I will do my part in continuing the legacy of pushing the creative envelope.....Thank you MJ....may you eternally Live... <br />
