In 1991 Moscow Public School #963 offered me the opportunity to teach an experimental class and work out a new art program. A year later I was asked to open a painting studio for students from all of the other classes. I had two groups in the studio with about 30 students alltogether. Many years have passed, but I remember all their faces and all their paintings. I am greatfull I had these wonderful children and their wonderful parents.
