Shakespeare quotes are classic- dripping with hidden (and sometimes not so hidden) meaning. Inspire your students with this original one-of-a-kind Shakespeare illustration! (see image below)
It’s quite simple: post your favorite Shakespeare quote in the comments section and you can win a full color, laminated poster of my painting, Quotable Shakespeare. I’ve never sold this image- or have even shown it to anyone- so you are the FIRST to see it, and one of you will get it shipped FREE to your home (in the continental U.S.). For all of the Shakespeare fanatics out there- this is for you!
Here is the Shakespeare illustration:

Quotable Shakespeare, Denise M. Cassano, oil on board, with collage elements. Shakespeare holds a skull, looking very regal as he seems to make a proclamation. He is surrounded by parts of famous quotes. This 11X17 poster is perfect for class. Students can write their favorite quotes and tape them to the black area. It may also become a focal point on a display board for a Shakespeare unit. (Of course, the watermark will not be on the illustration.)
Here are the rules: In the comments section below, write…
1. Your favorite Shakespeare Quote
2. The work the quote is from
3. A brief, 2-3 sentence explanation of the most exciting way you have used Shakespeare quotes in your class.
That’s it! The contest will run from Thursday, September 5, 2013 and end on Tuesday, September 10, 2013, 11:59 PM EST. I will randomly choose one, and announce the winner on Thursday, September 12, 2013.
In the meantime, we will have a collection of quotes and ways we may use them in class- everyone wins.
So go ahead, add your entry in the comments sections below- then check back often to see how others have used Shakespeare quotes in their classes!
