so I taught my art class last night and we did a Sto-inspred self-portrait lesson. I showed them the hamthrower strip, your coworkers as muppets, and the portrait you did of your friend as a fairy. They were stoked and inspired, and I actually got an amazing piece out of my kid (I'm attaching it b/c I thought it would give you a chuckle.) and Alicia and Nathe's Abby did a fairy vanquishing a monster, sword in hand (and scratch on arm)
I also got pictures of sponge bob square students, a Mario, a Luigi, and a self-portrait-of-kid-as-nerf-
Anyhow, wanted to pass along the thanks and tell you you have 7 new DNoD fans! :)
Have a better Tuesday than your Monday was, and tell Courtney I said hello!

So a friend of mine is teaching children art and is using my work to motivate them. I cannot think of a cooler thing than that. Jessica also included the following work by her own child:
I am stunned in blissful gratitude.
Thanks Jess.
Thanks Jess.

so cool! To Team Stowe!
I love how I could tell this email was from JCB during the first few sentences. :)
NiN was a close second, as far as my lesson planning went (his substitute DNoD strip would have illustrated sketching, drafting, and "how to draw a flowing, bloody nose" quite nicely!) --I quite admire a guy with pretty mad basic art skillz, who also can translate art into uber-high tech animation-y stuff... But alas, he had no muppets in his toolbox...
...And now, kind Sto, that warm glow of "you just made my day" has been reciprocated-- thanks for the props!!

Well done Stowe!
