a work in progress of a printerly illustration made up of many rectangles of small illustrations of plants, birds, and other images. One of the largest ones is a beheaded figure pierced by a sword

Happy Holidays! Have you ever heard of this fantastic festive folktale? The Yule Cat is an Icelandic legend centered around the holidays—an absurdly large cat said to eat anyone (especially lazy children ) who do not receive or wear new clothes by Christmas 🧦🎁🎄

Absolute sincere advice: Print your project out at least once, and read it out loud at least once. You will find SO MANY things to fix and smooth out. You'll hear repetition and inconsistencies. If you print it out, the book will be more real in your head.

Happy Friday everyone! Here was my poll for my middle school art students earlier this week. What’s your thoughts? Maybe I’m bias as an art teacher- but I think art is everywhere and in every subject! 🎨
