I'm Ms. Hurley, this is my first year teaching art and I am truly excited to share my love of art with the students at CCA. I obtained a Bachelors degree in Business Management/Administration from the University of Pikeville where I grew up. I have two beautiful children, Kelvin and Kyndall. In my spare time, I like to craft and spend time with my family.

This means the elements taught by the classroom teacher in history, science, math, and CKLA are also incorporated into our art lessons.

-Shape: 2D Geometric and Organic shapes.
-Form: A three dimensional figure.
-Texture: Implied or actual texture, how something feels.
-Color: Primary, secondary, warm, cool, and complementary.
-Space: The area above, around, below, objects
-Value: Used to create lightness to darkness.
-Balance - illustrates the visual weight of an image
-Rhythm - organized/disorganized distribution of visual elements throughout an image
