Sinclair's
Teaching Philosophy

     Human expression through art in my classroom is the most creative approach to life. I welcome your child and you to my course of studying art. The journey we will take together is a learning experience that encourages inquiry, discovery, and individualism.

     I believe in what I am teaching, because learning about art is a vital key to understanding the past, performing in the present, and realizing the furture. I am committed to your child's success by setting high standards that provide meaning and connections to human experiences.

     My courses in art promote visual literacy for your child through studies in art history, aesthetics, art criticism, and studio production. These experiences engage your child in interpretation, evaluation, creative problems solving projects, critical thinking, and self-expression.
