< Back Northern Lights of Gratitude: How Saskatoon's Grade 2 Students Shine Bright with Art and Inspiration Oct 12, 2023 Kim Jennings Leanne Schappert's 'Gratitude is My Attitude' Approach Transforms Classrooms into Aurora Art Studios In the heart of Saskatoon, a Grade 2 teacher named Leanne Schappert is lighting up her classroom with creativity and positivity, all thanks to a unique approach she fondly refers to as "Gratitude is my attitude." Inspired by the transformative work of Dre Erwin, Leanne has found an extraordinary way to combine the magic of art with the principles of the Law of Attraction. The result? Her students, too, are experiencing the radiant beauty of the Northern Lights, not just in the skies but on canvas as well. Dre Erwin, a renowned artist and advocate of therapeutic photography, has long been an inspiration to Leanne. Drawing from Dre's philosophy, she has woven the Law of Attraction into her teaching methods. "What an inspiration!" Leanne exclaims, as she watches her Grade 2 students shine with newfound creativity and gratitude. The project started with Dre Erwin's work as the foundation. His breathtaking captures of the Northern Lights served as a wellspring of inspiration for Leanne's young learners. Together, they studied his work, learned about the science and wonder behind the auroras, and even practiced meditative techniques. Leanne Schappert explains, "We wanted the children to understand that they could manifest their own beautiful visions, just like the Northern Lights." Under Leanne's guidance, her students have transformed their classroom into an aurora art studio. Armed with paintbrushes, vivid colors, and a newfound sense of gratitude, these Grade 2 artists have embarked on their creative journey. Their canvas becomes a reflection of their thoughts, dreams, and desires. The process of creating their own Northern Lights-inspired art has allowed the children to delve into the limitless possibilities of their imagination. Leanne explains, "They've learned that what you focus on can truly become your reality. With every brushstroke, they manifest their visions, and the results are nothing short of spectacular." The 'Gratitude is my attitude' approach fosters an atmosphere of positivity and self-expression, giving children a powerful tool to understand their emotions and unleash their artistic potential. And, as Leanne Schappert beautifully puts it, "It's incredible to see how these young minds have grasped the essence of gratitude as they paint their way to inspiration." Leanne Schappert's innovative teaching methods have not only awakened a love for art in her students but have also instilled in them the belief that they can create their own wonders, just like the Northern Lights in the night sky. Dre Erwin's work, combined with Leanne's dedication and the Law of Attraction, has truly set these Grade 2 students on a radiant path of creativity and gratitude. As they continue to paint their visions of the Northern Lights, they are not just embracing art but the boundless power of a positive attitude. In the end, it's evident that "Gratitude is my attitude" isn't just a slogan; it's a way of life, skillfully taught by an exceptional teacher in Saskatoon. The Northern Lights may be a natural phenomenon in the northern skies, but in Leanne Schappert's classroom, they've become an artistic and inspirational journey for all to witness. Previous Next

Northern lights in Canada lonely tree in the middle of a lake in northern Saskatchewan - with the aurora dancing over head Northern lights in Canada Imagine yourself waking up in a maze. After hours of searching but not finding the exit, you come to the conclusion that you’re completely lost. Bummer maybe, but an opportunity for sure. Because with everything and everyone gone – there’s only one person that you can turn to. And that person is… you. You will find yourself, because being lost means there’s nothing else to focus on except yourself. You are the only person that’s with you 24/7. From the second you were born until your last breath, nobody spends more time with you, than you. For that reason, starting a really loving friendship with yourself is a really good idea. Yet, in life we don’t always connect that well with ourselves. We are so focused on the outside world, that it becomes the compass we live by. Until the moment we get lost and the outside world is no longer the beacon that we can hold on to. Then we can only hold on to ourselves. That’s what I mean with getting lost is a great way to find yourself.

Aurora Borealis Saskatoon Chasing the aurora borealis has become a passion of mine once I moved to northern Saskatchewan (Pinehouse Lake). After speaking with people who message me weekly on my Facebook page from around the world who had never had the opportunity to see the lights, I realized just how special it was to have grown up watching them dozens of times throughout my childhood. Saskatchewan is perfectly situated to experience some impressive showings of the northern lights. Running from the 49th to the 60th parallel of latitude, there is a high probability to see the lights during a geomagnetic storm.

It is sometimes known as wide format photography. The term has also been applied to a photograph that is cropped to a relatively wide aspect ratio, like the familiar letterbox format in wide-screen video. While there is no formal division between "wide-angle" and "panoramic" photography, "wide-angle" normally refers to a type of lens, but using this lens type does not necessarily make an image a panorama. An image made with an ultra wide-angle fisheye lens covering the normal film frame of 1:1.33 is not automatically considered to be a panorama. An image showing a field of view approximating, or greater than, that of the human eye – about 160° by 75° – may be termed panoramic. This generally means it has an aspect ratio of 2:1 or larger, the image being at least twice as wide as it is high. The resulting images take the form of a wide strip. Some panoramic images have aspect ratios of 4:1 and sometimes 10:1, covering fields of view of up to 360 degrees. Both the aspect ratio and coverage of field are important factors in defining a true panoramic image. In this situation I just took 3 photos and stitched them together using Lightroom.

< Back Life's Unexpected Turns: My Journey Through Injury and Recovery May 4, 2024 Dre Erwin It's been a while since I've shared an update, and I wanted to take a moment to explain why. Recently, I experienced a significant setback when I ruptured my bicep and required urgent surgery. It was a sudden and unexpected turn of events that left me reeling, both physically and emotionally. As someone deeply passionate about photography, facing the prospect of being sidelined from my creative pursuits was incredibly daunting. However, as I navigated through the challenges of surgery and recovery, I found solace and strength in unexpected places. The journey has been anything but easy, but it's also been incredibly enlightening. It's reminded me of the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity. Through it all, I've discovered a newfound appreciation for the simple moments of beauty that surround us every day. While my photography may have taken a temporary pause, my passion for capturing the essence of life remains unwavering. In fact, this experience has only fueled my determination to return to my craft with renewed vigor and creativity. I want to express my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you for your continued support and encouragement throughout this journey. Your messages of kindness and well wishes have been a source of immense comfort and motivation. As I continue along the path of recovery, I look forward to sharing more of my photography adventures with you in the near future. Until then, let's embrace each moment with gratitude and resilience, knowing that even in our darkest moments, there is always light to guide us forward. With warm regards, Dre Previous Next

This unique initiative emerged from a shared vision to address the urgent mental health concerns affecting the adolescents in our local community. In 2018, the PPC garnered national recognition when it was featured on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's program, 'New Lens on Life.' This spotlight not only illuminated the extraordinary work of the club but also underscored the critical need for creative pathways to address mental wellness issues among young people. Since then, the PPC has blossomed into a vital resource for Pinehouse's emerging photographers. It provides a space where young individuals discover solace, inspiration, and a supportive community. Through the camera lens, club members have unearthed the therapeutic benefits of photography, using it as a tool to manage stress, express emotions, and find beauty in everyday life.
