Belated Welcome!

Hello everyone!

I got so excited about making a blog, and updating it with awesome images, that I completely forgot to introduce myself and provide you all with the purpose for this blog! So, excuse the tardiness.

My name is Kate Wellington and this blog has been created especially for my graduate typography course. Admittedly, I've never created a blog before, so I'm enthusiastic about this experience!

Here's a little about myself:

I graduated from Towson University with an undergrad in Art Education, and now I'm back (!), to get my Masters in Art Education with a focus in studio art. Currently, I teach elementary school art (ages 5-11, phew!) for Montgomery County Public Schools, and I love it.

I'm a huge fan of fantasy, mythology, folklore, and nature so I've designed my blog around that premise. The title backround was taken from one of my own works, just blown up.

I'll be doing frequent updates of all the awesome signs, lettering, and text I find (so there will be lots from faires and festivals) as well as that particulars required for my course. And, I am sure my fellow classmates will be joining in awesome contributions as well!


Enjoy!

~Kate Wellington

PS: Here's a little art of mine to emphasize my theme for the blog. Some of you have seen it before, but it's a personal favorite of mine (and this is the piece the background of my banner came from)!
