Teaching Philosophy:

Visual art is a means of expression and communication. Students being in a classroom where they feel they could be themselves will promote clarity of mind and enjoyable self-expression. Not many students will go on to be artists, but art affords them the opportunities to become more aware of who they are with increased self-esteem and a greater awareness of themselves and the world around them. If they can achieve this, I will know that I have been successful.
