Summer Is For…. Teaching!

I just finished a very rewarding and fun one week as a guest instructor at FIT (Fashion Institute of Technology) MFA Illustration course last week. Now I am getting ready for more teaching.

It is summer, and school’s been out since early May, and I always ending up teaching more in the summer. More, but also different, and it’s always fun that way.
