Scutes are the plates on a terrapin's carapace (shell). The patterning of the scutes is special and unique to the individual terrapin, like a fingerprint. I'm working at another of the Granville County Elementary Schools this week, Tar River Elem. Their mascot is a terrapin. Each of these school projects have some elements in common, but each experience is unique and special. It is a joy to be able to share what I love with these students, and help them create a lasting art work for their school. We talked about how being an artist requires knowledge in all of the core areas of study, math, language arts, science, and social studies. Sure it's fun to sit around all day and make stuff... but you have to be able to run your business too. Thanks again Granville County and GC Education Foundation for supporting creative learning opportunities for your students!
