Both of my kids (now 23 & 25) attended Woodlake Elementary in Mandeville, LA. This was probably around 1994. Mike Artell came to share his enthusiasm with the students in the school's gym. He was all set up at one end of the gym, the students sitting 'criss-cross applesauce' on the gym floor armed with a pencil and paper. Each time Mike Artell drew something, every child bowed down to mimic him. It was nearly a religious experience - not one child misbehaved - not one peep came from their mouths. Every child was drawing! At the end of his presentation, he happily autographed a book for my daughter which she still treasures today and my son developed his own snake cartoon series that he worked on for for most of the year. I can't wait until I get back into the classroom in the fall to use Skype. Awesome use of the technology! This brought back such a great memory!!!

He was awesome and a delight with the kids. They were glued to the SmartBoard as Mike started off by introducing himself and giving them a little "cajun" background. He then proceeded to instruct the students through some fun drawing lessons--we didn't want to hang up! I would like to personally say "Thank You Mike!" for taking the time out of your busy schedule to show us your talents. What a great experience for my class and me!

Reading this blog post inspired me to contact Mike and he has been wonderful to work with. My students are currently writing fairy/folk tales modified to a local/regional setting with regionally-appropriate characters. Mike's Petite Rouge book is a perfect example from which to draw. Thank you for the idea and inspiration! I am very excited to tell you that we will be having a Skype session with Mike Artell tommorrow!
