ART EDUCATION
Description:
The arts have always served as the distinct vehicle for discovering who we are and I believe essential to the personal growth of our students. Visual Art Education includes The National Core Art Standards, which are designed to guide the delivery of arts education in the classroom with new ways of thinking, learning, and creating. My art courses at Wydown include working with materials such as, drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, fibers, and other mixed media.
