Once a month I have an art night at the library, and there’s usually a theme, and it’s usually something seasonal. Last February I did Olympic medals cos the Winter Olympics were going on. This year it’s hearts for Valentine’s Day.

Yeah, I don’t care about Valentine’s either, but I figure the kids can come and make a Valentine for their mom/dad/parental guardian. Good harmless fun.

So when I do these events I always make one of the projects beforehand as an example so the kids/adults can see what the deal is, and honestly, it’s one of my favorite parts of the job cos I get to make some art even if it is just a collage in the shape of a turkey or star or, in this case, a heart.  I’ll admit that this time I was a little bummed that I couldn’t come up with something better than a Valentine heart, but as I started working on it I realized that I’m a damn genius.
