Yesterday

Mr. Ely was my Art Teacher at Oshkosh North High School. He was an absolute joy to have as a teacher. He would have open studio in the evenings and taught us how to throw on the potters wheel, pug clay, paint and study other famous Artists. He's one of the reasons I became an Art Teacher and taught Art for 35 years myself. I have nothing but love and profound respect for Mr. Ely. May He rest in Gods beautiful embrace
