New Orleans Art Project

New Orleans Art Project- Cultural and historical awareness.

This project is an extension of my work with New Orleans projects like "Spirited New Orleans" (cemetery restoration) to donate www.adoptacrypt.com

Here is a quote from Anne Rice-

I'll buy your book immediately.

Also I hope you photographed my husband's mausoleum in the Metaire

Cemetary.  His poems are inscribed in stone on the side of the little

chapel.  And the stained glass window design is taken from one of his

paintings.  My daughter is buried there too.  --  I think with your book,

tying into a city that is severely threatened is important.   New Orleans

is really in danger, and parts of it, as you well know are vanishing

forever as we speak, and more may be lost before this next season is

over.

New Orleans in the News!

This project can be adapted to many forms and functions. I had students draw the architecture of New Orleans and frame it with newspapers. I have used the same idea to frame cartoon pictures with the funny pages. Frame historical art with the archived newspapers like D-Day, 911 and others. Sports art looks great with sports page frames.

Collage the frames with Mod-Podge over matt board, wood, or plastic old frames. We decorate some with squeeze paint- like for t-shirts.
