Welcome to my art page! I teach five periods of art: four classes in General Art and one (period 5) in Advanced Art.

I am also a member of the 6th grade Magnet team. Many of my lessons align with 6th grade Magnet PBL projects.

The focus of my classes is on Traditional Art, its Elements and Principles of Design. This year, due to students learning from home without many supplies, I taught drawing skills and techniques using regular or colored pencils. My lessons were generally live drawing lessons taught by myself via Zoom and reinforced with video or step-by-step power point.

As you scroll through the slide shows, keep in mind they contain only a SAMPLING of student work. There simply was not enough space to post it all!

The students created great artwork from home!

You'll see amazing outcomes! Enjoy!
