Last month I was approached by Katie Blunt, aka @katiepanks about using my Twits project to help teach portraiture to her Pre-K class of 4, 5 and 6 year olds. Of course I was honored to help any way I could, since children are the future and everything. In addition to sending her samples of some of my favorite Twit portrait highlights, I also wrote them a letter (available here: http://www.impactdesignltd.com/letter.html ) about being a professional artist and answered some of their questions. Then, once Katie finished the lesson, her students were then instructed to create a self portrait. This is what they came up with.

Needless to say, I am very proud of each of the students, and amazed at how talented they all are. The artists for each piece are as follows:

1. Kaden, age 5 - also did a portrait of me!
2. Kaden, age 5
3. Hudson, age 5
4. Gabe, age 6
5. Thomas, age 6
6. Tatum, age 4
7. Rowan, age 6
8. Rafferty, age 6
9. Kameryn, age 4

A big thanks to all the kids, and to Katie for thinking of me!
