About 

About me:

Hello, my name is Dell Gibbs and I teach K-5 Art and Latin. This is my second year teaching at Seven Hills, and my tenth year working in arts education. In addition to classroom teaching, I have also worked as a museum educator, with a focus on helping young children engage with abstract art. I have also enjoyed a career as a professional artist; my paintings have been displayed nationwide, including in the Smithsonian Institution. 

I studied oil painting at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the oldest art school in the United States, which focuses heavily on realism. I later went on to study Art History at the University of Pennsylvania, with a specific focus on Asian Art. I also studied Art Education at California State University, Long Beach.
