Toft's 8' X 12' Ice Cream Mural - Port Clinton, Ohio 2016

INTRODUCING THE ARTS TO THE YOUTH

Jodie encourages young children to "help" her when she is Illustrating her Children's Books and other products in her studio.

She would also like to extend the invitation to any young budding Artists that stop by to watch her paint the Mural. Promote the Arts encourage the youth whenever the opportunity presents itself.

TOFTS MURAL

New commission by Toft's Ice Cream will be completed in early March. This is a rough color sketch that will be used for laying out this 8' X 12' mural on the interior wall of the shop located in Knollcrest Plaza in Port Clinton, Ohio

We have not been approached before to produce a mural but it involves a larger, much larger, version of what we have rendered in the past as far as style in Greeting Cards, Calendars, Gift Wrap, Children's Books and other products over the past 45+ years.

If you are in the area, stop by and view the progress, we will be devoting roughly 4 hours per day, so it will be by chance that we can stop and chat with you.

School Presentation

      Jodie & Grant were invited to the Immaculate Conception Elementary School in Port Clinton, OH., to present a program to 80 Pre-K through 5th graders, on December the 14th.

      The children learned through a Power Point presentation how a 3/D Nativity set was produced by Jodie. First the rough pencil were shown, then the front and side view of each little character, then the color was applied and e-mailed overseas for the mold makers to generate the figures, the prototypes were then forwarded to Jodie & Grant for their approval before going into production.
   
      Each child (and Teacher) received one of Jodie's 48 page coloring books based on this "Destination Location."
