Some students might not celebrate Christmas, so why bring it up? Leaving it out of the curriculum will do more good, in my opinion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/3ef1005b-a071-4132-a886-d8ae82879720/IMG_6529.jpg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag Book Visual Responses Break up with Christmas in the art room 2/2 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/fddbd38b-bdf9-4063-9b14-62432971797b/IMG_6647.jpg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag Book Visual Responses Eagleview Elementary 1/2: Sandy and Mrs. Smith are two art teachers at this school, and this is a summary of things I wanted to remember.

Not all things are good, nor bad. Knowing what others think of you can inspire you to believe in yourself. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/f39afe6a-fff2-4a49-bf60-a0282c542d4e/IMG_6863.jpeg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag Book Visual Responses During our visit to Frost Middle School, the main point the art teachers made was that it’s important to see where the students are and be flexible. The two assignments were creating restaurants and making mugs with charms out of clay. I had really great discussions with the students, and they loved adding fake moss everywhere on their projects! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/30ad8a92-5197-405c-937d-9ad59c3cc0f6/IMG_6864.jpeg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag Book Visual Responses A major part of the visit that I enjoyed was watching Judy demonstrate how to slip and score and repeating parts of their assignment. When the students stood around, she was asking questions and having them answer as they watched her at her desk. Then, when she mentioned them creating five things on their mugs, a student called her out for saying they only had to do 3-4! I also thought the classroom setup was interesting because she told us she lets them sit wherever they want, even when students had more at one table than another. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/5daddd90-bd15-4972-a3ba-21ca4b1730d3/IMG_7099.jpg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag Book Visual Responses Instead of trying to articulate my art practice, I wanted to use a sticker of my work from my BFA show last semester to speak for itself. Surprisingly, or maybe not, this is my least favorite painting I made, but I think the way I pushed myself to continue abstracting and creating in this way is why I hold a special place in my heart for it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/a523454f-17db-4434-b4e6-cb0989c724d7/IMG_7098.jpg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag Book Visual Responses One thing about my artwork is that I love graffiti-inspired bubble letters. I wrote words that I would use to describe my current art practice. These words are inspired by the series I refer to on my other flag page. I always make these bubble letters for fun, and during my time teaching so far over the last two summers, my kids are always impressed with my speed and ability to make the letters connect in some way that they can’t! https://www.caitlyn-agro.com/flag-book-tutorial/flag-book-tutorial monthly 0.5 2026-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/b09471ad-4ff7-40de-8538-abc648221b9f/IMG_6374.jpg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag book Tutorial - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/4a0dde69-7406-4cce-a5e9-5d62136994eb/IMG_6378.jpg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag book Tutorial - Make it stand out 8 folds have been made https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/280d82cd-bbaf-4341-bf78-5f06cba5df98/IMG_6380.jpg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag book Tutorial - Make it stand out Showing the labeled paper https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/02494f6c-b289-4d6d-9c96-17df20fb5c60/IMG_6384.jpg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag book Tutorial - Make it stand out Shows pattern to place Post-its https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/7aefb8e4-668c-457a-9dad-0253bc57cacd/IMG_6384.jpeg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag book Tutorial - Make it stand out Shows layout of pages in book https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/d9876ef1-1e4c-4df6-a015-6586ceebfa99/IMG_6441.jpeg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag book Tutorial - Make it stand out How to fold corners! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/ad7825c1-372b-4f2d-963d-a34345c0f3fb/IMG_6442.jpeg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag book Tutorial - Make it stand out Final cover/backing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/430928a4-a3d8-4479-9a34-8d66ffbae0c5/IMG_6542.jpeg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag book Tutorial - Make it stand out The binder of the book should have folded part of the triangles facing outwards like this image https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/47d180f6-4770-4dd6-87ff-28ef6cb62e34/IMG_6541.jpeg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag book Tutorial - Make it stand out How book pages should look when you glue the pieces of paper in place of the Post-Its. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/18f4a19a-6431-4bce-9308-64686b5cfef0/IMG_6544.jpeg Flag Book Tutorial - Flag book Tutorial - Make it stand out Front/back inner covers! https://www.caitlyn-agro.com/avt-595 daily 0.75 2026-11-04 https://www.caitlyn-agro.com/avt-595/studio-exploration-crayons monthly 0.5 2026-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/db3695cc-b693-4a17-a334-a3d69bf316dd/IMG_6803.jpeg AVT 595 - Studio Exploration: Crayons Test swatches of different crayons: Crayola, Jupitearth, and Massrt https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/ce1ab6dc-2b8e-43c7-aa43-c7eea1b227c6/IMG_6804.jpeg AVT 595 - Studio Exploration: Crayons Final study—I used the massrt crayons for most of this flower drawing, and also the jupitearth. https://www.caitlyn-agro.com/avt-595/studio-exploration-colored-pencils monthly 0.5 2026-10-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/b233ddaf-fc63-48bf-a689-b960e3866a7e/IMG_6545.jpg AVT 595 - Studio Exploration: Colored Pencils - Make it stand out Test swatches of colored pencils: Prismacolor, Liqui-mark, Crayola https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6aa02306ccff6440955ccb3d/82a10fd4-995e-4a55-9e79-7dd7be132d85/IMG_6421.jpeg AVT 595 - Studio Exploration: Colored Pencils - Make it stand out This is my final studio exploration piece.
