Mission Statement

I love art and I am passionate about teaching.  I believe that visual arts is a key part to the development of a well-rounded individual who learns independently, thinks critically, communicates effectively and solves problems creatively.

My goal is to create an environment that encourages creative thinking, problem solving, and mastery.  I will challenge my students with high expectations and encourage them to reach their full potential through creativity, hard work, and reflection.

Through art, my students will gain knowledge of art and culture throughout history and the modern world.  Students will work with a wide variety of media, methods, and styles. We will use elements and principles of art and design to create unique works of art.
