From Maria’s Magic Studio: “Shield Of Words.”

by Jon Katz

Maria’s Schoolhouse Studio is a magical place to me, Maria never talks about her ongoing work, I am always delighted and surprised when I see it for the first time.

This is an unfinished piece tentatively entitled “Shield Of Words.”

Her shield is covered with hundreds of her words, and I am touched by her celebration of words and art together, especially given the times. I don’t know about the figure, she’ll explain it.

Words matter. The piece isn’t done and is not yet on sale. If you have any questions or comments about it, you can e-mail her at [email protected]

I love loving Maria. Her art is an integral, bionic part of her. So are words.

  1. Would you please post if Maria decides to turn this piece into a magnet or poster? I work w/ 6th grade students and I’d love to share this in my classroom!
