Frances has taught 5th grade art class at Calvin Donaldson Elementary  as an Artist
in Residence funded by a grant from North American Royalties for the past three
years..  At the beginning of the 2002 academic year, she asked  her fith grade
students if they would like to paint her van.  What is art and what is vision were the
topics of the following class; close attention was paid to the anatomy of the eyeball
itself.  Fifteen students  drew studies on paper and then on the van itself.  These
talented and swift  artists finished the painted mural in roughly two class sessions.
