Oman has attended watercolor classes at CHAW since 1995. The Capitol Hill Art League s monthly shows at CHAW are open to Art League members only, but local artists are encouraged to join for a modest fee. Members then pay a small entrance fee to enter up to three works in a show. Each month s show has a different theme determined by the Art League and interpreted by the guest judge. The shows include all levels of expertise and all mediums.
Pieces are for sale by the artist and prices are posted on all pieces.
It's all in a day's work for Johnson at the Lab School for children with learning disabilities. He mixes yoga, tai chi, gymnastics and all forms of dance into creative warm-ups, activities and games that encourage coordination, muscle development, focus and structure. He never raises his voice and often uses humor to persuade the clumsiest child to try a cartwheel. And he can get them to soar to heights that most people never thought they could achieve. But he was advancing those aims long before the advent of the new PE philosophy.
