About Mrs. Carson

Pablo Picasso once said that every child is an artist. I have the joy of seeing the truth of this statement every day! After teaching art for over 30 years I still enjoy seeing these young artists color their world in their own unique way. I can teach every subject through art including geography, history, science, math, and literature while exposing young minds to a wide genre of music and even movement. It's my goal to give students rich art experiences that will spark a life-long appreciation of visual art.

I received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in art education at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and completed a graduate degree in elementary education at Furman University. I am the proud mother of three children and have three precious grandchildren. I love to travel, garden, sing in my church choir, read, create art, and gallery browse. I love teaching at AJW and working with a dynamic, dedicated group of teachers.
