Subject: Nice Art Work...
Hello
I just found your Art Space gallery, and it is very fine, indeed. I'm an
teacher in University of Arts and Design Helsinki, Finland, and I'm
building an www site for Tech Art and Art Education. I was wondering, if I
could use some of your artworks in our site, as an examples.
I'm intrested of Still life by Shira Wachtel, and acrylics by Cathy Chou,
Jenny Auler, Jay Steigmann, Morgan Finch, Megan Robin-Abott, Molly
Robin-Abott. Please let me know if I can download these. The artists name
and your High School would be included to the pictures.
Yours, Mika

Great pages, I must congratulate you.
Please keep up the great work, I've linked to you from the OTIS pages
(http://sunsite.unc.edu/otis/otis.html) and check for new things on your
pages every so often.
Just thought I'd let you know I appreciated your effort!
Take care!

Dear University High School,
I was paging through the Internet and happened to notice your Mosaic Site.
Our High School is doing similar Computer generated art work. We currently
have two computer labs running Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Fractal
Design Painter, and Strata StudioPro. It would be neat if we could
collaborate on some type of Internet critique with students from your high
school and our high school critiquing each others work. We have started to
put student work on our gopher server and we hope to have our Mosaic server
up shortly.

Karen,
Heh. I think you will get a kick out of my pages. Not only has your art space
been in my pages since it was announced BUT it is also featured in our
ArtsEdge demo that Scott (the director) takes around the country to do
disk based demonstrations.
If you would be so kind as to send a short paragraph introducing your
project and telling what's happening, I will be sure to feature it in my
new pages for Kennedy Center (ArtsEdge) which will be produces in the
next 60 days and announced.
We should probably talk at some point about a collaboration... I am open
to any ideas you may have.

I just saw the Uni High's home page and cruised through it for a while. I
am currently ready to graduate from Virginia Tech as a graphic design
student interested in the advertising field. I think your page is really
cool. I hope that the students feel the same way as I do. If I knew that
people had such easy access to my works, and found merits in them like I
did with your student's works, I don't know what I would have done.
I guess the only reason why I decided to write to you is because it
reminded me of my high school art teacher who was very open to anything.
She may have been the reason for my leaving the engineering field, Thank
her soul. Anyway, I think you are doing a fantastic job, knowing full well
that it is not your responsibility to have a web page.
The only suggestion I have is to reduce the size of the files. 272k takes
a long time to download, but that's just a technicality.
Nice Job.

I found you on the www. I'm an art teacher at San Dieguito High School in
Encinitas, California (just north of San Diego)
I'm creating a home page for our art department and also developing art
curriculum for my students to use while on the net. I saw your picture on
your uni home page and I thought you might be interested in the
collaborative art project I'm developing. Check it out at
http://www-tep.ucsd.edu/people/mimi-ralston/mona.html
It's just a beginning...tell me what you think and please offer advice or
indicate if you and your students might be interested in participating.
I'm interested in a mini test of the idea- a preliminary implementation- so
I can assess and modify the curriculum as needed.
Your uni art home page is a good example to use as a model. In
September, I'm hoping to have students work on my started home page and add
to it.

Karen,
I have been trying to log into your electronic gallery "Artspace" but all
I get "is address not found on this server". Can you re-confirm your adress
for me as I would be most interested in seeing it.
Here at the University of Derby's Design Reseach Centre we are in the
middle of setting up our own virtual gallery up comprising initially of
electronic art but will extend to other art forms in due course. Keep an
eye open for posting announcing the opening (sometime in June)
Look forward to hearing from you,

Hi Karen ,
I was brousing through your pages over the Easter Weekend here in Australia
and thought I would let you know how much I enjoyed discovering your pages.
Nice work Karen,
Although I'm not strictly an art teacher I was influenced quite strongly by
my art teacher whilst at school (some years ago now).
I am now a professional puppeteer/ Jazz Musician who specialises in
creating educactional shows for Schools and Museums throughout Australia,
New Zealand & Asia . I have recently started my www pages which will give
you a much more visually colourful idea of my work.
You may like to have a look.
Well thats all for now, Good lck with your work and I look forward to
hearing from you sometime

Karen,
Not only do I think ArtSpace is a great project (since I am doing
another project with independent artists -- mostly adults, but some teen
'zine publishers (at www.MediaNation.org)) but I love your karmic
warning page. In fact, if you don't mind, I may want to point to it as
part of my copyright notice on my art pages!
Best,

Subject: Awesome Site!
Ms. Hellyer,
I don't know how I stumbled across this awesome site but I'm glad I did.
I have worked as a graphic designer for various companies here in
Oklahoma for about ten years. Last year I decided to get certified to
teach art. I am now awaiting an art teaching position to become
available. Meanwhile, I am running our school's Macintosh computer lab.
I have been working with two other teachers developing our school's
homepage. I really enjoyed your site. In fact, I made a bookmark of
it and have been showing it off to a lot of the teachers. From personal
experience, I truly appreciate all the work you have put into it!
I'm interested in your art curriculum and would appreciate any other
info you might be willing to share. Specifically, about what is being
taught at each level (ie Art I, Art II, etc...) Thanks for such a
wonderful asset to art as a whole.
Sincerely,
Kasie Shaw, Central Mid-High School, Norman, OK

Hi. I'm Michael Lieber, professor in anthropology at UIC. That's
irrelevant. My wife, Esther Lieber, is a teacher at Lakeview
High School in Chicago, and she coordinates an arts partnership
between the school and several arts groups (theater, dance, etc.)
She has worked on a proposal for a public high school for the
arts, and it looks like the Board is buying it. A colleague suggested
that she look at your curriculum as she works up her proposed
curriculum for presentation to the Board. So I am writing to
request any written materials you have on your school's
curriculum or a contact person at the school who can point me in
the right direction. Thanks.
