ETA:
Clarion 2010 applications opened early this year. They're open now.
Can't promise you awesome chalk art, but it's an awesome instructor line-up!

So to continue my response to Shweta's post
about Clarion chalk art... Here's another piece of art... and Shweta creating it. If I remember correctly, it's inspired by the decorative and auspicious rice-flour patterns made in many Indian cultures: kolam in South India, rangoli in North India, alpana in Bengal.
And then there were the birthday works: The stegosaur for Drew and for Julie; and the Perseponie for Katie (a reference to a story she wrote at Clarion). Shweta was responsible for the first, and Kater for the second.

That's most of what we had, I think. The masterpiece, IMO, was "The Scream" and that's on
Shweta's LJ already, along with the amazing robotic Mickey.
