My Project

I teach art to over 650 creative, inspiring, and outgoing children. These children are on their toes with all the new ideas for creating art with both traditional and non traditional materials. I absolutely love seeing the ideas that they come up with and seeing the world through their eyes.

"Every artist was first an amateur".

As we start this school year fresh, my students have noticed that we are short on some of their favorite materials that inspire their creations. We need fresh paint stock to complete our community art mural in which every student on campus will complete a square of the wall. We are also requesting gel pens and fine tip markers to complete the fine details of our artwork. The children are so excited to create this mural and be part of a large scale art project that will be enjoyed by the student community for years to come.
