​Art Education

​I believe there's a lot to be gained from paying attention to these simple ideas:
Creating feels good.
Creating can do good. 

Working creatively can be soothing, expressive and playful. It can lead to the discovery of ideas about ourselves and the world around us. The fine arts, crafts, music, culinary arts, illustration, design, architecture, etc. all have value. I teach students learn to use creative problem solving skills and build an art practice that is tailored to them. ​
