Catching Up ... My Manifesto

It is important for a student to know what a teacher's core beliefs are... My manifesto so to speak. I have been teaching for 30 years. I studied industrial design before I became a teacher. My viewpoint is based more on a thinking and creativity approach as opposed to art production. Professional artists approach art with a finished picture in mind... and so they should. I can, as a teacher, focus more on the process. Industrial design gave me an amazing approach to art and I love it. I can't help but share what I have learned over 30 years and I look forward to Facebook Lives! These next few weeks I will be posting short videos of my art philosophy. It has developed through years of teaching all types of students. My unique approach is a great way to jump start your creativity.

See you in class!
