The Painted Monkey is the official newsletter of the California Art Education Association.It is published four times during the year:

• January • May• March • September

(and a vendor issue in November)

You may contact the editor via email at: [email protected]

Members are invited to submit articles through the President, one week prior to the deadline.


September keeps rolling in, like an annual tide of incoming information. Everyone is in full swing with the beginning of another school year. As you can see from this issue, the upcoming conference has something for everyone. We can’t stress enough the value of this professional development and hope you use that as justification for attending especially in light of the $500,000,000 grant to the arts and physical education plus the $105,000,000 for arts supplies and equipment that was passed by the California Legislature in June. At a recent meeting between the CDE, TCAP, and arts leaders, we discussed the current state of the arts and what the priorities are for this upcoming funding. The five strategic recommendations for maximizing this opportunity are: Standards-based Professional Development for Teachers; this means conference attendance; Leadership-based Professional Development for School Site Administrators; Standards-based Curriculum Development, also covered by conference attendance; Assessment of Student Learning and the Evaluation of Instructional Programs; Instructional Resources to Support Standards-based Arts Education.

All of us share in the elation over this landmark funding and hope to see it continue. Conference attendance is one way to prepare yourself for the future and help develop strategies that will advance the case for arts education. We also share in your concern over costs for conference attendance. This seems an ideal place to share with you some of the reasons conferences cost so much, especially when compared with the cost of attending the NAEA Convention.

First, but not to be discounted: the smaller the conference, the more it costs. Our Conference Manager is constantly looking for venues that can provide the number of meeting spaces we require and still keep the costs manageable. That is why we can no longer afford San Francisco, San Diego, and Monterey. They have priced themselves out of our pocketbook, as much as we love the locations. Then, when we move away from those centers, we can’t always find places big enough to accommodate our needs. It is a constant balancing act between needs and costs. And we try to plan five years out because costs keep going up. Things like parking and transportation are also concerns.

The starting point for any hotel negotiations is how many room nights we are committing to. That means, how many guests will be

President’s Message

ConferenceTime AgainBy Penelope [email protected]

reserving rooms. We are constantly predicting how many members will attend and it fluctuates with the state and school district budgets. But the number of room nights we guarantee governs the number of meeting rooms we can get and whether or not we have to pay for ballrooms (for vendor setup), general session rooms, meal functions. For any hotel, we also have to have three meal functions and hotel meals are pricey. For the Riverside Conference the least expensive meal was $22.00. Sometimes the served meals are less expensive than the buffets. At other hotels, it is the reverse. So, that is why area breakfasts, auction buffets, receptions, and brunches are usually in the hotel. Another very large expense is if we do not meet our room night guarantee. In Riverside, because we did not have as many attendees as predicted, we paid a $6000 penalty to the Marriott. In Sacramento we ended up having to pay $5000 for the ballroom for the vendors because the conference was smaller than anticipated. To give you an idea of how attendance and costs go together, here are the figures for the past two conferences. Last year in Sacramento 351 people attended and the conference cost us $86,216.15. That conference was down from Riverside where 362 people attended and it cost us $96,178.69. Keep in mind that the conference is the primary way the organization gets the money with which to function and also to raise scholarship funds. The more money we have to function, the more benefits we can offer members. It is through this professional organization and other similar arts organizations that we now have state standards and were able to get the new state funding.

Something for each of you to consider is that California now has more visual arts teachers than any other arts discipline. The latest statistic is 3,971 visual arts teachers as compared to 2887 music teachers. This is a strong shift in the arts away from music. Yet, the music association has over 1000 members and CAEA has only 864. It is due to the commitment of those professional members that we are seeing the strengthening of the arts in education. If each member brought in just one more member, we could double that number.

This summer, letters went out to colleges, encouraging their art teacher training departments to form student chapters. Letters have also gone out to arts providers asking how they might support the membership of CAEA. We are constantly striving to meet the needs of the visual arts in California and the primary way is through professional membership. We urge you to stay committed and help bring in new members to the organization. There is strength in numbers and we are slowly adding to those numbers. Do plan on attending the conference and making your commitment to not just preserving the arts in California but enhancing the arts in California. Make your reservations as soon as possible as the association must also meet cutoff dates for attendance counts.

And last, but still not least, we now have 18 recipes for our Artists’ Cook Cookbook. It is so simple to submit. Just write down and illustrate one of your favorite recipes. Make sure to sign it and send to me. We need around 60 for a book.

Looking forward to seeing you at the conference.

How Can I Afford to go to the Conference?

5The Painted MonkeySeptember, 2006

Since 1965www.caea-arteducation.org California Art Education Association

By: Brenda DaltonReprinted by permission of the Florida Art Education Association

Going to the Conference provides you with that special get-a-way to spark your initiative to face those classes with a new outlook. It’s worth it!

1. See your professional development center for possible payment of conference registration fees. Remind them that you will be attending meetings that are vital to alignment of your curriculum with reading, technology, CAEA. or whatever is being promoted at the moment. Our wonderful presenters are right on target with offerings in these areas and you will return with a wealth of pertinent information to help you bring your classes fabulous learning experiences. Check what is being given to others and plead your case. You should at least get a sub for a day or two. Also, Title II funds can be used for professional development. Please check with the person or department that handles the distribution of those funds.

2. Find buddies to share a room, car, taxi, etc. We have found that 4 to a room can work very well if you remember to: respect each others property, space, time, and bathroom needs, among other things. If you have sleeping disorders supply your mates with earplugs. Imagine staying at a hotel four days and paying for only one!

3. Join hotel and airline frequent member clubs. Eventually you can have a flight or room free.

4. Charge groceries, food, and daily expenses on credit cards that give cash, flights, etc. in return. Important: Pay Off Monthly!

5. Save receipts for job related tax expenses.

6. Reserve flight as soon as feasible in order to get lower fares. Check with internet sites offering reduced rates, preferably on the airlines you have frequent flyer miles with.

7. Several exhibitors will offer special food opportunities. Whether you find a reception, discounted meal, free breakfast, drinks and snacks or appetizers, you can save money and meet some great people.

8. The free art supplies many vendors give away are great to take back to the class.

9. Trade babysitting or child care duties with a trusted friend. Give your spouse a break too so they like the idea of you going to the conference.

Needless to say money is usually a concern when determining whether we can go to the conference or not. Few counties will help us with more than a substitute teacher.However here are some tips that might make it possible for you to attendthe next California or National Art Educator’s Conference.

www.caea-arteducation.org California Art Education Association Since 1965

The planning committee chose as the theme for this year’s CAEA conference, “Art Grows: Planting New Seeds”, for several reasons. First, the obvious one is that it honors our premier agricultural base in the San Joaquin Valley. In 2006 Fresno County celebrates its 150 first years and its recognition as our country’s most productive agri-business county. We are proud of our special agri“culture”…in addition to that we hope to share with conference participants the growing visual and performing arts “culture” of our region.

Just as significant is the second reason for our thematic title: its relationship to our organizational goals of providing new ideas for nurturing the growth of the arts in education, and of cultivating better ways to teach and evaluate our students’ learning. Current thought stresses that the best education happens in an arts-integrated curriculum where diverse learning styles are recognized as part of the way we learn. The accompanying illustration shows this idea in a simple graphic image. The design was created by the Center for Arts in the Basic Curriculum, Inc. It makes it easy for

those of us “visual/spatial” learners to “think in pictures” (as described by Howard Gardner, the creator of the Multiple Intelligence Theory). The arts as primary integrated subjects “fertilize” the growth of the seeds of understanding across the curriculum.

We welcome you to our garden of ideas! Come to Fresno 2006 and make it your time to “plant new seeds” for your art curriculum and get rejuvenated for the coming year. Sow new ideas from Master Artist Classes and Workshops along with museum and ceramic factory tours. Enjoy the fruits of the Friday evening “Trolley Gallery Hop” with art studios and wine tasting! See visual artists in all three general sessions: Local artist Doug Hansen (Friday); world renowned fantasy artist James Christensen (Saturday); artist & author Ken Vieth (Sunday). Focus on planting special seeds by signing up for Saturday’s Elementary Strand or Clay Day. The Silent Auction on Saturday evening is our main event with lots of items for auction and it all supports student scholarships. Be sure to join us on Sunday morning for our CAEA Awards Breakfast to honor CAEA members for their dedication to art education. Keynote Speaker, Ken Vieth, will follow the awards presentation. Plan your conference carefully so as to fulfill your planting needs and we will see you in Fresno for Art Grows: “Planting New Seeds”.

James ChristensenKeynote Address: Saturday October 28, 3:15pm Opulent, colorful, Shakespearean, extraordinary: All words that aptly portray Christensen’s most popular artworks that have also been described as “creations from the land a little left of reality.” He has created a Shakespearean Island, an entire undersea world and a village of Mother Goose characters. But when he isn’t giving life to other’s worlds, he paints a place of his own. The result is a unique kinetic kingdom where recognizable human emotions are often manifested as fish or fowl, utilizing the viewer’s own imagination as no other artist can. His art includes unique people, places and things that exist somewhere between adult dreams and childhood memories.

Book Signing: Saturday 5:30pm–6:30pm

Doug HansonKeynote Address: Friday October 27, 4:30pmDoug Hansen has been a Fresno-based artist and illustrator for over thirty years. He is well known locally for his 23 years of illustration work at The Fresno Bee, and especially for his weekly series of pen and ink drawings of Valley landmarks called Fresno Sketchbook. The Fresno Sketchbook drawings were published as books in 1991 and 1993. Doug received his BA in Art from California State University, Fresno, in 1974. He earned his Masters Degree in Art at California State University, Fresno in 2002 and was selected as the Graduate Dean’s Medalist in the College of Arts and Humanities. Doug is an assistant professor in the Department of Art and Design at CSUF. He teaches Rendering and Illustration and considers it a privilege to teach at his alma mater.

He is a member of Gallery 25, the American Institute of Graphic Arts, and the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators. His most recent solo exhibition was in 2004, Picturing Letters at the Lyles Gallery at CSUF.

Overview

Trolley Gallery Hop (#203)Friday Night Event, 6pm–9:00pm($15.00 Payable with your conference registration.)

Just outside the doors of the CAEA conference in the Radisson Hotel headquarters begins an art experience that exemplifies the theme of our conference: Arts Grows, Planting New Seeds.

By purchasing a $15.00 Friday night event ticket, you may participate in a very special Fresno art event from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Leading local artists will be sharing their current works at a variety of venues especially for CAEA. McGraw-Hill Publishing Co. has graciously underwritten the evening of art, hors d’oeuvres, beverages, and entertainment. As you proceed through the galleries and studios, continuously running trolleys will pick you up and take you from one venue to the next all in the Downtown area.

Whenever possible, the artists will be in their venues. Many of them have been in the field of art education and are excited about sharing their works with you. Special attractions include:

• Pottery displays • Young emerging artists• Live-in studio spaces • Photography• Paintings and Sculptures

At each art venue, there will be a host to greet you. When you arrive at each place, present your event ticket and collect the card representing that venue. When you have collected 8 cards, you may present them on Saturday to the McGraw-Hill representative in the vendors’ hall to redeem a special gift. BE SURE TO ORDER #203 EVENT TICKET WHEN YOU REGISTER!

Duncan Ceramics Factory & Art Stand Gallery Tour (#202)Friday, October 27, 2006 8:00am–12:00pm($35.00 Payable with your conference registration.)

Join a group to tour the Duncan Ceramics Factory. This behind the scenes look will give teachers an in-depth look at what goes in to making glazes and other materials for the ceramic artist. We will also make a stop at the unique Art Stand Cooperative Gallery in Sanger at the base of the Sierra Nevada close to the Kings River. Ceramic artists Tiwi Wood and Elaine Towne Lane along with water color artist Sally Delap-John and metal sculptor Lyell Metcalf share gallery space with artists displaying oils, acrylics, pastels, gourds and jewelry. The work of these artists capture a mood that reflects the local valley scene in a show called Autumn Colors.

Ride from one studio/gallery to the next throughout Fresno’s downtown art scene on this unique trolley at Friday’s special event. Collect these individualized “Art Grows” tickets at each art venue to have enough of them to receive a special gift from the evening’s sponsor, McGraw Hill Publishing Company.

Fresno Art Museums Tour (#201)Friday, October 27, 2006 12:00pm–4:00pm ($35.00 Payable with your conference registration.)

Docents will lead participants on tours the Fresno Art Museum and the Artes Americas Museum. Exhibits vary from ancient to contemporary art. There is an excellent collection of ancient pottery from Latin America. Artes Americas features two exhibits - Day of the Dead and Photography of Early Fresno plus a great store for the collector. The Fresno Art Museum features a sculpture garden, contemporary art, and museum store. The Fresno Art museum will have three exhibits – Robert Brady’s Wood Sculpture, Council of 100 Women Distinguished Artists, and Deborah Barrett’s Works on Paper and Sculpture.Go to http://www.city.palo-alto.ca.us/communityservices/documents/bradyrelease01-063_000.pdf to see information about 2 of these artists.

Finding Your Voice In Clay (#450) Sat. 8:30am–11:30am Instructor: Craig Easter

Craig has been working in clay full time for 33 years and is presently in his third year as president of the San Joaquin Clay and Glass Association which serves from Kern to Merced counties. He is an member emeritus of the Association of Clay and Glass Artists of California, has been an exhibiting member of the American Craft Council since 1978, and has exhibited nationally in galleries for almost 25 years. His work is cone 10 stoneware, single fired using wood ash glazes. Pieces have strong utilitarian flavors yet tend to fall along the lines of being more decorative than food functional. Craig will present examples of his work via slides, throwing/hand building demonstrations, and discussion with the theme of “INFLUENCES: How do we use them, where do they come from.” He will address the students/artists as their education exposes them to influences and how they may ultimately find their own voice in clay after sifting through the voices of their mentors.

Class Size: Limit 30

Altered Forms: The Thrown Form as a Beginning (#453)Sat. 8:30am–11:30am or 12:30pm–3:30pm Instructor: Carol Wyneken

The thrown form becomes a blank canvas or an invitation for a sculptural form to the eye and hands of Carol Wyneken. Carol began working in clay in 1973 with William Shinn as her instructor at Hancock College in Santa Maria. After returning to school in 1989 she went on to receive her MA in Ceramic Sculpture from California State University, Fresno. She has had many different teaching experiences with different age groups from pre-school to Fresno City College. In this presentation participants will learn techniques used to create a “Cloud Pot” from a thrown bowl. They will then have available to them a bowl with which to create a pot utilizing these techniques.

Where Water Flows (#452) Sat. 12:30pm–3:00pm Instructor: Tiwi S. Wood

Tiwi was born and raised in Jakarta, Indonesia. Her multilingual background led her to an MA in Linguistics and years of teaching college. “Somewhere along the line, I took a beginning ceramics class from Jim Shepard, a prominent potter in the California Central Valley and a marvelous teacher. This was the turning point in my life. I realized then that this was what I was meant to do, but I have no regret whatsoever about the years I spent searching for it. My linguistics background now serves as the backbone of my work in clay as I’m very fond of incorporating language, such as narratives, in my pieces. My years of teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) to foreign students also exposed me to international cultures, and this contributes to my work as well.” Her current show is on exhibit at The Art Stand near Sanger.

Tiwi will be showing examples of her work, showing how drawing/sketching and pottery can be combined, and demonstrating three handbuilding techniques for making fish : pinching, slab rolling, and altered wheel-thrown fish. Techniques can also be used for making other animals as well. Participants should bring a towel and a plastic bowl.

Multicultural Approaches to Art (#251)Phyllis Johnson Friday, October 27, 2006, 8:00-12:00 PM

This is an opportunity to acquire cultural insights through art. Using a specific multicultural project the participants will explore the many languages of traditional visual images, the context in which selected societies have created these images, and a greater global perspective. A central theme that relates to the representation of animals will help us delve into other ways of seeing and different points of view. Whether one wants this experience for his/her own personal growth or as an entry into the design of curricular programs that celebrate cultural diversity this workshop will provide the necessary content and imagery. Developing a comprehensive knowledge base and providing opportunities for creative expression are included in this class which explores a variety of two-dimensional media (these will be provided). 12 cultures are covered from Aborigine to Zapotec. $10 Materials fee payable to the instructor. Class Size: Limit 20

Introduction to Watercolor Pencil Techniques (#252)Cris Guenter Friday, October 27, 2006, 8:30-11:30 AM

The objectives of this session are: demonstration of watercolor pencil techniques, use of relevant vocabulary, and discussion/presentation of several different examples using watercolor pencils. The overview presentation will then shift to the hands-on session to explore watercolor pencil techniques. How and when should watercolor pencils be used in visual art lessons? Watercolor pencils offer a unique connection between drawing and painting. You draw with them as you would with any pencil, but adding a wet brush to the strokes disperses the pigment for a whole new and different look. Wet, dry, both, or the addition of other art media offers a range of possibilities for creating visual art and making direct connection to the state and national standards for Visual Art. $5 Materials fee payable to the instructor. Class Size: Limit 25

Silk Painting is the juxtaposition of light, color, and texture. In this exciting class, you will learn how easy this ancient technique can be? Start by stretching a smooth piece of white Habatai silk onto a frame. Next, you will learn to use a resist to create your design and then with Chinese brushes, fill in the colors using vibrant water-based dyes. Use watercolor techniques to explore color mixing. The results are like a fabric version of a stained glass window. Come experience this ancient art and leave with an object of beauty. Bring your design ideas. Carol Henderson is a Bay Area artist and teacher who has taught this technique to students aged 6 to adults. This workshop, though designed for adults, will give you the skills and knowledge necessary to teach this process in your own classroom. $10 material fee payable to instructor. Class Size: Limit 16

Mary will work with underglazes and an airbursh to go through techniques she has incorporated into her earthenware production line of decorative plates and bowls. She will talk about the required equipment to get started and briefly cover maintenance, air pressure, and pigments. Exercises with inks will show participants how the airbrush works. Mary will then demonstrate how to apply underglaze design to plates an bowls from an initial drawing to the final finished artwork. Steps include transferring the drawing to paper, cutting stencils, working with the stencils and underglazes and using the airbrush in combination with the painted design. Class Size: Limit 15

Bronze Design (#262)Richard Arenas Friday, October 27, 2006, 12:00 – 4:00 PM

Richard Arenas is a sculptor who earned his Bachelor of Arts and Master of Fine Arts degrees from California State University, Fresno. Many of his subjects portray the life of California’s migrant farmworkers drawn from his own family’s experiences. However, his body of work shows great versatility in addressing a wide range of subjects and an ability to express a universal message. His unique style melds his cultural history in Pre-Columbian art with modern media and techniques to make connections between the past and present. He helps us see how the memory, heart and spirit of ancient peoples are the forces which have shaped who we are today. His decorative bronze tiles exemplify his ability to combine art with function. He will be showing class participants how he designs his work and works through the finished process. Participants will design their own metal piece from wax. Bring dental tools, metal container for wax, rags, bunsen burner, & small formica board. $15 material fee payable to instructor. Class Size: Limit 15

Watercolor Reflects the Valley (#263)Sally Delap-John Friday, October 27, 2006, 12:00 – 4:00 PM

Coil Weaving On Gourds (#351)Sam McKinney Saturday, October 28, 2006, 8:00 -12:00PM

Pine needle weaving as function and art has been practiced by native cultures for centuries. Artist, Sam McKinney tends to give her gourds a southwestern or Native American look because it lends itself to the natural beauty of the gourd. Sam will demonstrate the decorative techniques she uses to transform this nonedible relative of the cucumber, melon, squash and pumpkin into fine art. Hands-on participants will be working with individual gourds and weaving materials to make a one of a kind sculptural gourd. $15 Materials fee payable to the instructor. Class Size: Limit 15

Introduction to Colored Pencil Techniques (#352)Cris Guenter Saturday, October 28, 2006, 8:30 -11:30PM

The objectives of this session are: demonstration of colored pencil techniques, use of relevant vocabulary, and discussion/presentation of several different examples using colored pencils. The overview presentation will then shift to the hands-on session to explore colored pencil techniques. When drawing in colored pencils, color becomes an equal partner to drawing. Colored pencils can and should be used for more than just filling drawings. With these drawing tools, line becomes a vehicle for color. As with basic pencils or crayons, pressure can quickly influence the “feel” of a drawing done in colored pencils. With colored pencils you have many options, but also many decisions to make regarding the outcome of your drawing. Direct connections to the state and national standards for Visual Art will be made. $5 Materials fee payable to the instructor. Class Size: Limit 25

Hands-On Monotype Printmaking (#353)Katherine Venturelli Saturday, October 28, 2006, 8:00 -12:00PM

Monotype is a direct and painterly printmaking process that allows both novices and experienced artists of all ages to create finished images in relatively few steps. For children and adults, the monotype process is a delight because it fulfills one’s need for playful experimentation, spontaneity and surprise. In this hands-on experience, workshop participants will develop an understanding of fundamental monotype printmaking terms, materials, and techniques. Demonstrations will cover single-run and multiple-run monotype, chine colle, development of “ghost” imagery, and experimentation with textures and collaging materials. Ms. Venturelli has exhibited nationally and internationally and was exhibited in the California Palace of Legion of Honor’s Contemporary California Works on Paper. Please bring your inspired ideas, any printmaking paper you may have (some printmaking paper will be available), and any found materials you wish to chine colle (paste) and collage onto your print (letters, labels, sheet music, tickets, etc.) $15 Materials fee payable to the instructor. Class Size: Limit 15

Shadow Puppetry (#354)Judy Roberto Saturday, October 28, 2006, 8:00 -12:30PM

Bring the ancient and magical art of shadow puppetry into your classroom. For all grade levels, shadow puppetry combines visual and performing arts, addressing standards across the curriculum. Students minimize their problems with puppetry, allowing shy and visual learners to shine. Shadow puppets as entertainment go back to the 18th century in Europe and America. In the Orient, they go back even further. Professional shadow puppeteers used multi-jointed figures to create some very fancy characters, but even simple stick figures can be impressive, when accompanied by sound effects, clever dialogue, voices, and creative movement. Using standard classroom materials and the overhead projector, class participants will create and perform with shadow puppets on a screen stage. $10 Materials fee payable to the instructor.

An e-Portfolio is a collection of student work that is easily created, accessed and enhanced with the use of sound, music, and images to represent and convey information. Students use digital cameras to photograph their work, store images digitally, review their work, select pieces to include in the e-Portfolio, write scripts, record narration, and add text to create a multimedia presentation. The collection of e-Portfolios was reproduced and distributed on DVD’s. After completing this project, students will understand how the e-Portfolio is an assessment alternative to traditional testing, have a sense of pride of their product, and share work with others. Examples of student work will be shown.

Dragons fascinate all children. Learn a variety of media techniques that can be used to create dragon artworks. Each participant will make a dragon picture. Participants will then use the image for a writing lesson. Research on art and cognition shows that connecting to image first results in stronger written results. Lessons will be geared to K-3 teachers, but could be modified for grades K-8.

Location: Salon GTime: Saturday 9:30-10:45amInstructor: Anne FaughtMedium: Powerpoint

This workshop is an abbreviated Powerpoint presentation showing a chronology of California Landscape Painting from 1850-2005, with a focus on environmental awareness. We will be looking at the development of our state and the use and misuse of resources through landscape painting. A studio art assignment handout (and examples) based on the theme of art as social commentary will be supplied as well as ideas to take this topic further and integrate with science and history curriculum. I have developed this presentation as a way to talk about the role of art as a powerful tool in educating and advocating for environmental awareness and to encourage decoding skills and building language for visual critiques as students confront the imagery in our increasingly complex world. Assignment handout and examples provided.

Keeping you in our thoughts...Laurel Burch is in the hospital and in need of cheer. Anyone wishing to send her a card or note, the address is:

PO Box 1296Novato, CA 94948

Summer is quickly going to be a thing of the past and school back in session. We are all thinking about the upcoming Arts conference in Fresno, and once more seeing our colleagues and renewing friendships. I am happy to report that I received 74 entries for the California Painted Monkey Flag that will be produced by yours truly for the National Art Education Association conference next March. I was very pleased with the number of students that wished to participate in sending in artwork with the possibility of it ending up on the California CAEA flag. Thanks to all the teachers that sent in your students art work and for participating. Hopefully there will be space at the October conference to display the works of art, so keep an eye out at the conference.

I am also happy to report that the Southern Area sent a student to the Idyllwild Summer Program July 24 to August 5. The student’s name is Kelly Hewitt, a senior from Community High School in Moorpark and her teacher is long time member, Karen Keys. We were very pleased to sponsor Kelly with a combined scholarship from the Southern area and Idyllwild Arts. The Northern Area also sent a student to Idyllwild Arts, her name is Ariana Roman and she will be a senior at Leadership High School in San Francisco. Ariana’s teacher is Heidi Guibord. Ariana attended the Summer Program August 6th through the 18th. Both students attended drawing and painting sessions. I am anxious to hear how their two weeks went. Stay tuned, I will report back in a future issue of the Painted Monkey.

See you in Fresno at the conference.

Its time to get those registrations in the mail. We are encouraging early signup to save you money as well as provide the committee with the numbers to plan for the events.

Below are some tips to help make the registration process easier for all of us. The fewer problems we have to handle during the conference will make the lines and wait shorter for all. If you have everything paid in full with no problems then all you will have to do is pick up your packet at the registration booth and be on your way. If you still owe money or have last minute changes you will have to wait in a long line and might be late to the events you want to attend. So please be sure to send in your conference registration as early as possible and contact me with any changes or additions no later than October 1st.

Tips & Deadlines:

• Sep 15, 2006 – last day to mail Early Bird Conference Registration (Best Rates!)

• Sep 27, 2006 – last day to reserve rooms at the Radisson at conference rates.

• Oct 1, 2006 – last day to mail pre-registrations for Conference. After this date you will have to register at the conference.

• Oct 1, 2006 – last day to mail balances due for conference registrations.

• Fill out your conference registration completely and please print clearly.

• Be sure to check which included events you plan on attending; items 200, 300, 302 and 400 on the registration form.

• Double check your addition.

• Include your completed membership form and the appropriate fee for Nov. 1, 2006 thru Oct. 31, 2007 membership.

• If your school is sending in your registration with payment, please make sure they are sending in all the forms. NO PO’S ACCEPTED!!!

• If you are paying with MasterCard or Visa, please be sure to include the expiration date on the form and make sure you print the correct credit card number.

• When you receive your confirmation, please double check to make sure that your registration is correct and if a balance is due, remit by October 1st.

• Do not send in your hotel information with your registration, you have to take care of your hotel reservations separately.

This is a great time to invite a friend or co-worker to join CAEA and attend the 2006 CAEA Conference.

Greetings. I hope everyone has had a pleasant and restful summer. I have been shadowing Barrie Burnham for the past two years as President-Elect and I am now ready to take over the reins. I would like to thank Barrie for all of her help and kindness during this transition. She has left me with some fairly large shoes to fill. I want to also thank her for her years of hard work and dedication to the CAEA. We also have some new cabinet members. They include; Katie Squire from Coalinga, (treasurer), Carol Visitacion/Terri Murray, from Fresno and Bakersfield, (co-secretaries), Michelle Sanchez from Bakersfield, (newsletter editor) and Marcie Ruona from Clovis, (YAM chair). Charlotte White will be staying on as the Awards chair and we are still looking for a President Elect, Administrative Representative and a Kern County Representative. If you would like to get involved as a committee member please contact me.

The upcoming CAEA State Conference in Fresno, ART GROWS: Planting the Seeds, promises to be a great opportunity for you to get new ideas for teaching art and networking with others. The scheduled master artist classes and workshops offer a wide variety of exciting and informative ideas. The conference committee, under the well-organized guidance of Craig Tomlinson, (conference manager), has been working to ensure that your experience at the conference will be well worth the price of admission. The next State Conference Committee meeting is scheduled for September 16th at the Radisson Hotel in Fresno.

It is my hope that all of you attend the state and local conferences. It is wonderful way to re-energize your teaching! Speaking of conferences, the central area will not be hosting a fall “mini” conference this year, but will be offering one next March in Bakersfield. Look in the local and state newsletters for more information.

I look forward to serving the central area as President and hope that more of you will become involved at the committee level. I would like to continue to offer area conferences, student scholarships, art camp, YAM shows and support to teachers in the central area, but I need the support of our membership to do so. Central Area Board meetings are open to all members and are casual pot-luck affairs. The next meeting will be in September at Liberty High School in Bakersfield. Please contact me for more information on meetings or if you would like to help in any way. [email protected]

Is there ever really an ending or a beginning to the school year any more? Yes, there was graduation in June for those of us at the secondary level and all of us finished up our 2005-2006 school business on or around that same time. But then the year-round schedule started up within weeks of the ending, some of us taught summer school, others attended workshops, classes or even camp. Those of us in the Southern Area started the planning of the 2007 state conference in Pasadena while the planning and production of the 2006 conference in Fresno is still an ongoing task moving into high gear at this point in the year.

As teachers, I am sure you have heard it more than once; it must be nice to have the whole summer off. You look at the person who has uttered that statement and think to yourself, if they only knew. Yes the students move on, some to the next grade and others to the next chapter in their lives. To me it never really seems to end, one year just seems to seamlessly meld into the next. Hopefully the past year has prepared us for the next. The mistakes that we made will have been learned from. We evolve and approach the next batch of students with enthusiasm and a yearning to create a positive environment in our classrooms where students feel safe and there is mutual trust and respect. Again, no ending or beginning, just the next phase, not only in our student’s education, but in ours as well.

I am sure that more than one of you is wondering where I am going with this analogy. Well, my name is Tami Lincoln and I am your new Southern Area President. I just wanted to let you know that I feel that there was not really an ending or a beginning to the area board leaving and to the one that is taking over the reigns of leadership. It was a seamless transition. Our past President, Betty Harrison, made sure that I was fully involved with the process of running the area. She did an awesome job in her post. Betty, don’t plan on riding off into the sunset, I plan on utilizing your talents and experiences. Bruce Groff from the San Diego area will be taking over as President-elect. While new to our board, he has been serving as President of the San Diego chapter and I look forward to working with him. Our out-going Treasurer, Jane Leese, was holding a dual position as both area and State Treasurer and will continue on as State Treasurer. Jane you will be missed but not forgotten as she chairs the State

conference for 2007. She has ably trained her replacement, Susan Wuerer, who is by no means a rookie to the board. She has served on many committees and is currently the State Professional Awards Chair. And last but not least, Linda Erickson will take on another term as our area Secretary. I am looking forward to working with each and every one of them, and with you also.

We all lead busy lives, and I will need help to keep the Southern Area moving forward and not stopping the good things that Betty has started. I will need liaisons from each of the counties: Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, San Bernardino, Santa Barbara, Riverside, San Diego, and Imperial. There are the Youth Art Months to organize and awards to be given. There are Smart Days, mini-conferences and meet-and-greets to organize, and scholarships to award. I cannot do it alone. Please contact one of us soon and get involved. Also, don’t forget to start planning to attend the State Conference in Fresno in October. Make sure you sign up to attend the area luncheon, we look forward to meeting you and working together to make the Southern Area a leader in arts education.

$105 Million and $500 MillionState Budget Monies:The state budget for 2006-2007 has targeted money for visual and performing arts education. This is an exciting historic time and hopefully the first recovery step since 1978 and the impact Proposition 13 had on education, and specifically arts education. The $105M, AB 1811, is considered on-going funding and is targeted for districts, charter schools and county education programs. At this time allocation is based upon site enrollment A.D.A. AB 1811. The Visual and Performing Arts community of educators provide/suggest key focuses for standards-based sequential arts education, considerations that include: professional development for arts specialists, administrators, and generalist teachers; hiring of credentialed arts specialists; establishment of a district arts committee; evaluation of existing arts education programs; creation of standards-based sequential arts education programs to be delivered within the school day and including curriculum development and assessment; purchasing of supplies and equipment aligned with the curriculum of instruction; and that the funds supplement and not supplant existing resources for visual and performing arts. In discussions prior to funding, conversations revolved around reporting back to the legislature and Governor’s office about how districts were intending to use the funds and learning what differences the monies made for our students. Because of these discussions we believe trailer bills, written when the legislature returns from recess early August, will follow, and will providing clarity on questions that continue to come up from those that provided the funding, from the field and from arts educators. The $500M, AB 1802, is one-time money intended for use to support instruction of Physical Education and Visual and Performing Arts at school sites. At this time allocation is based upon A.D.A. site enrollment. The $500M amount comes from the former proposed funding of $250M for Physical Education and $250M for Visual and Performing Arts. At this time AB 1802 directs use of funds to supplies and equipment to support standards-aligned Physical Education and Visual and Performing Arts instruction. There has been discussion of other uses of this funding so trailer bills, to be written in August, will further clarify specifications regarding the use and the allocation of this funding.

Until all trailer bills, pertinent to the state’s 2006-2007 budget, are signed by the Governor (anticipated early September), the visual and performing arts community awaits the final word

on specificity regarding these two funding sources. In the meantime, review your district plan; see where you have well covered certain aspects and where you feel there are needs. Establish a committee to do this, if you do not already have one in place. If your district does not have an arts education plan begin the convening of an arts education committee to look at what is and is not in place. Should you need suggestions of how to approach this evaluation, please do not hesitate to contact the Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) Consultant at the California Department of Education (CDE) ([email protected]), the California Alliance for Arts Education (CAAE) [email protected]. regarding their join work with the PTA, the CAEP project; or The California Arts Project (TCAP) via [email protected]. Should you have questions about potential uses of the funding, please do contact your state consultant for the Visual and Performing Arts (referred to previously), TCAP (referred to previously) or the California Art Education Association (CAEA) for visual arts and digital arts: [email protected].

CBEDSFinal submission has been made for some definition changes for the 2006 CBEDS report done annually in October by each school district. Some teachers complete the CBEDS report at faculty meetings every October. Some districts complete these reports for their teachers each October. If you do not do your own CBEDS reporting, it is suggested you check with your district office and see which course code # they tagged your courses of instruction with for 2006. There have some definition changes and a few course numbers added between all four arts disciplines, including visual arts. For 2007 there have been further course description changes and new courses added. It is hoped the infamous “other” will no longer be used when reporting courses on the CBEDS form. It will be prudent to pay attention to the course code you class of instruction comes under, in the district’s view…as that course code determines the credential the individual instructing that class needs to hold and evidence for NCLB compliancy. While the CBEDS form for 2006 contains no new information on the course code portion, there IS a NEW portion where NCLB compliancy or on non compliancy for each course taught is to be indicated. Watch this form carefully for the next couple of years.

New Monies For Arts EducationCAEA will have on its site the latest information regarding supplies and equipment lists for visual arts, what professional development looks like, why have a district arts team, funding sources by mid August. Soon to follow that posting will be the posting of FAQs regarding use of the new state funds available for arts education. Please go to your organization’s website and locate this information. The four arts organizations and physical education organization, the two representative subject matter projects and the two consultants, along with a representative from UC and from CSU have collaborated on this information.

CAEA ConstitutionBeing UpdatedMember Comments Invited October 15-29, 2006Member Ratification November 15-30, 2006

Since January 2006 an appointed subcommittee of the CAEA Council, under the direction of Cris Guenter and Susan Wuerer, has been carefully reviewing the CAEA Constitution and By-Laws for the primary purpose of updating language, aligning formatting and moving the entire document into an electronic format so that it can be made available to CAEA members on our CAEA website. The last updates and revisions to the CAEA Constitution occurred almost a decade ago, but were not finalized in electronic format. When asked about this task, Guenter stated, “The first step was to take what we had in hard copy and retype it all into an electronic format so the tasks of revising and updating could begin in a more efficient way. Then we have gone line by line, carefully checking our current documents and referring to information in the CAEA archives for accuracy.” The proposed changes in the document are mostly editorial in nature, especially with layout and in the clarification of referencing the articles within the constitution.

The CAEA Constitution is a system, codified in a written document, which establishes the fundamental rules and principles by which the organization is governed. CAEA By Laws provide the description of the CAEA Council member duties and the conduct of state meetings. When changes are made to the CAEA Constitution, the membership of CAEA must ratify the updates. As a CAEA member you are invited to review the draft document and then later vote on its ratification. The timeline for this process will be as follows:

TCAP - Alive and WellBy Carol Lockwood - TCAP [email protected]

The California Arts Project (TCAP) is the state’s subject matter project in Visual and Performing Arts. TCAP’s central mission is to deepen teacher’s knowledge of dance, music, theatre, and visual art, to enhance student success pre-kindergarten through post-secondary, and develop instructional strategies to support the Visual & Performing Arts Content Standards For California Pubic Schools and the state VAPA Framework. TCAP’s regional sites throughout the state offer a variety of professional development programs that work in partnership with schools, districts, County Offices of Education, and arts organizations, to ensure the highest quality arts instruction for all students.

The California Subject Matter Projects have been reapproved by the State Department of Education and funding is in place for this years budget. 2006-2007. Institute information is available on the website www.csmp.ucop.edu/tcap. at five sights.

State Funding UpdateAs you are aware, the state has passed a funding bill for the Visual and Performing Arts and Physical Education. CAAE is continuing to advocate for trailer bill language that will provide an accountability mechanism for the new funding. Nancy Carr of the State Department of Education is working with a team , including Kris Alexander of TCAP and the arts professional organizations as well as colleagues in Physical Education, to draft a series of recommendations for the education community, as to the optimal uses of the funding. The recommendations will be available on the CAEA Website, under Advocacy, in September. You are encouraged to download the recommendations and share them with your principals, school site councils, V&PA Coordinators, school boards, and district administrators.

Youth Art Month 2007“Art Helps A Child Bloom”By Marilyn Martin, CA YAM [email protected]

As you make plans for this school year, I hope it includes getting involved with Youth Art Month (March 2007). “Getting involved” might mean putting on a school or district exhibit, or it might mean submitting your students’ work at an already established county show. If you’re not sure if your county puts on a YAM exhibit, check with your area YAM chair. If one is not already established, don’t be afraid of organizing one. I have found that the time and effort this commitment demands is more than made up for by the rewards and satisfaction it provides. Since becoming more involved in CAEA and YAM, I’ve had the pleasure of working with some wonderful, energetic people. They energize me.

This year’s YAM theme complements our conference theme, (“ART GROWS: Planting New Seeds”). It is also rich in possibilities for art advocacy projects. To begin the brainstorming – how about a vine winding around your school or district office with each student’s name on a leaf, or paper flowers with a student’s photo as each flower center? Twisted brown butcher paper stapled to the wall makes a fine vine. A second idea: students use a clay pot as the surface for their painting. (Make sure the inside of the pot is varnished or otherwise made waterproof.) Add soil and a houseplant, and display in your school or district office, or give them as gifts to your school board members. You have many more ideas, and I’d love to hear them.

Our three area YAM chairs – Carol Piskoti, Tamyra Tomlinson, and Lori Love - did an outstanding job, and I could not have done my job without them. There are some changes for this year. Kevin O’hama and Janet Applegate will co-chair northern area, and Marcy Ruona will be our new central area chair. Lori Love will stay on as southern area chair.

Contact Info:Kevin O’hama: ([email protected]), Marcy Ruona: ([email protected]), Lori Love: ([email protected])

I have received more than one request for a standardized art submission form to accompany artworks submitted to exhibits. This becomes particularly important for the area shows that receive student work from many different schools and counties. Please use Arial font in size 16 or 18, and set up your forms like the example shown below.

Have a great year!
