My Students

"Every child is an artist"- Pablo Picasso.

My students are energetic, smart, brave, and caring individuals who also happen to love the arts.

I am lucky to be teaching such bright and talented students and to be able to share my love and passion for art (and teaching) with them!

My students range from 5 years old to 13. They sing and dance and act and of course create visual art. There is no lack of creativity in our school which I believe helps the students thrive in all areas of academics. We are a Title I school meaning a large percent of kids are financially disadvantaged. There is an awesome sense of pride and community that I haven't seen before in a school. The children are caring and there are very positive signs of future leaders in society. Since we are an art school, the children choose their choice in artistic focus by 4th grade and develop their skill until 7th grade. The school is very unique in the way it structures student learning around the arts.

My Project

My sixth and seventh grade students are ready to move on to a higher level or art making! Currently we do not have advanced printmaking materials, having printmaking tools will enable the students to think more creatively and with a different part of their creative brains. We will be creating expressive hand prints, carving with the linoleum knives and printing in black and white to keep the simplicity while exemplifying the line quality and their carves. Students will design a surreal environment where their hands fit into the scene. Carving the linoleum will not only take physical demands but also a mental demand to figure out what stays on the printing black and what needs to be carved to expose their image. Students have worked on Styrofoam boards which does not require the skill and thought process and the linoleum.
