 TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

In my classroom, we celebrate the act of creation, innovation, conceptualism and craft. It is my belief that everyone can learn something from art. It may be learning to feel confident in and appreciate a museum. Or learning to hone a broad range of technical skills that can then be applied to new mediums, and morphed into completely origenal creations. Or developing ones sense of design aesthetic and philosophy. It may be learning to meet a deadline and present oneself professionally. Or finding a way to face an experience, fear or belief through creative self expression. I am deeply invested in teaching, which gives me great joy. Be it in person or virtual, I strive to make everyone feel welcome, no matter what their background or experience level is. My hope is to create a warm, fun, yet highly structured environment which will give students a solid technical foundation, coupled with in-depth discussions and critique to get their brains, eyes and hands all working in sync to achieve their goals.
