Art has been apart of my life for as long as I can remember. There was always a coloring book and crayons in my hand to keep me from getting bored on the ranch. As I furthered my education, there were people who were always telling me "I can't draw". I continued to work on what I love and everyday I continued to get better. Those three words inspired me to become a teacher so I can show those children art isn't all about drawing and painting. 

There are millions of different mediums in the world that a person can use to create art. Teaching art can be a trial and error process and through error, I can show students that their mistakes can be something amazing. I enjoy seeing students find a medium they excel in and take flight. Art lets student explore who they are, and gives them a voice in the world. I want to inspire students that if they are to shy to say what they want, their art will speak volumes amongst the world. As a teacher, I can learn something through a student and I think that benefits everyone.
