I have just jumped down the rabbit hole of creating digital planners and notebooks as I prepare to best meet my students' needs this fall. I created the files using Google Slides, and they can be exported as pdf files, easy to use in Goodnotes or other programs. Or they can be kept as slides and be living documents for students. Everything links, too! This is a view from Goodnotes. It's a lot of upfront time to make now, but will hopefully be easier later. For anyone interested, @slidesmania has free ready-to-go notebooks, planners and tutorials. I highly recommend. #digitalplanner #digitalnotebook #googleslides #goodnotes #artteacher #highschoolteacher #artteacherlife #arteducation #remotelearning #digitallearning.

After spending more than I wanted on boxes to store stuff during our construction, I had an epiphany that, in comparison, an Apple Pencil was worth the money. And it was. Hey, I need it for . . . teaching. I think she is a fairy godmother who has lost her charge. #procreate #digitalart #illustration #fairygodmother #artteachersofinstagram

On my summer to-do list is mastering alcohol markers. This WIP looks not quite like my reference photo, but I made a little progress with blending. #marker #copic #copicart #illustration #rose #drawing #noteverythingisperfect #makingmistakesislearning #artteacherlife #art #artistmomlife #ink #artteachersofinstagram

The early morning light cast this lovely shadow of the sign in our front window my daughter made for BLM. The photo doesn't do it justice. #photography #heart #light #reflection

After work yesterday, my daughter and I took a much needed walk and connection with nature. #pointdefiance #pointdefiancepark #nature #naturephotography

I was in need of a little art therapy, so I did a bit of intuitive doodling while processing everything going on right now. This includes digging deep and reflecting after reading White Fragility as well as Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You, both which I highly recommend. I've been quiet as I've seen a lot of virtue signaling, and it just didn't feel right to take up the space of other, more relevant voices. I am committed as an educator to be part of the positive changes we need. #arttherapy #doodle #marker #ink #artteacher

I might be inordinately proud of this stylized smoke I made in #Procreate based on a lesson by @Mitchleeuwe. I probably could have spent another hour on it. #digitalpainting #art #digital

Way back in the day, I taught myself how to paint with watercolors by drawing and painting fish, so I figured creating one in Procreate would be a good plan. #digitalart #procreate #sealife #fish #artteachersofinstagram #ar

Sealife studies that I should have done weeks before starting #mermay. I have to admit, I'm just a little bit proud of the seahorse. Who knows if I'll ever actually get to drawing the mermaids.

Took some random watercolor blobs and made them characters. This is a great way to break out of an artists block or provide a quick art opportunity if you are short on time. Done on a blank postcard. #watercolor #characterdesign #artistsoninstagram #artteachersofinstagram #ink #drawing #friends #artteacherlife
