Bill Cosby Jello Portrait

So In an attempt to create a cool Jello Mold I actually ruined it, all that is left are pictures. It was a portrait of Bill Cosby in Rasberry Jello. In an attempt to have it set faster, I put it in the freezer, forgot about it and it got all frosty. Then in an attempt to defrost it, I left it out too long and it melted his face off. I orriginally painted his face using chocolate syrup. This was the second time I painted the portrait, the first time I tried to save the image between two layers of jello, but the layer going on top actually melted his face off as well. so I removed it and painted it again. and then the whole freeze/melt thing happened. So Jello Bill Cosby is no more, all that is left are the photos

Fun With Stamps






Remember how fun stamps were when you were a kid? These were super easy to make- Just foam shapes glued to peices of sponge.

Connections


The connections between teachers, students, and their indiviual worlds create a tangled web that can center around art in the classroom.
