About this time every year, our local library displays art made by the students of area schools.
One day, a few weeks ago, I got an email from our art teacher asking if I could help her. I didn't really understand what she needed help with but I agreed. As it turned out she needed help get the art mounted so that the pieces could be on display at the library.
I was working and getting a good bit done. Then, she gave me some "stuffed animals" to mount from a sewing unit they did. I looked at this one that was to be mounted and knew right away that it was Austin's.
The project was to have 3 parts of your childhood and put them into one stuffed creature. Austin's creature is a small dog, whose body is a video game controller. On the ear of the dog it has a blue canary (from a song he likes).
I thought it would be great to get a picture of him with his creation at the library, but he didn't agree. I think he did a great job!
I'm intrigued by this stuffed creature sculpture. I like the way Austin created it. - Diane Burkholder
