I am Mrs. McNeil and I have been teaching art for 16 years.   For the last nine years I have been implementing a TAB philosophy to creating art with young artists.  "TAB" is an acronym for, “Teaching Artistic Behavior,” an innovative philosophy of teaching art that replaces teacher-directed projects, with ones that focus on the student as an independent, autonomous artist.  

                     My Guiding Principles :

What do Artists Do?     

The Student is the Artist.      

The Classroom is their Studio.
