Art Education

Welcome to my Art Education Portfolio! As a passionate elementary art educator with over 30 years as a professional artist, I bring real-world creativity into the classroom. My goal is to spark joy, build confidence, and foster lifelong appreciation for the arts in young children and teens through fun, hands-on projects that honor timeless techniques while encouraging imagination and personal expression. Explore a small sample of student work featuring joyful creations from my classes. Whether blending colors, shaping clay, or telling stories with simple materials, I love creating warm, inclusive spaces where every child feels proud of what they make.
