Thanks for the introduction to Edlemann. From viewing this piece I got a
great idea for a lesson. I rarely ever do an "in the style of lesson." But
this piece gave me a notion for truly judging a students' understanding of a
particular artist's style ( and an opportunity to use Christo)
    "Wrap" an artist's work (or an object that has significant style) and
through the manipulation
    of the wrapping indicate the essence of
     that work then draw the "wrapping "

      then unwrap it and do ?????

I feel fun coming on
thanks Jan
