My Students

I teach all areas of Visual Arts at the high school level for our school corporation. My classroom is a multi-function room that caters to all art forms, from drawing to ceramics to digital design.

My biggest goal in my classroom is to provide a space for artists of all abilities and achievement levels to be able to explore and create to the best possible level.

I have all levels of learning, from special needs to honors/AP students, and I think each student has an artistic vision to share.

My Project

My students are a mix of in-person and virtual learners. Due to safety restrictions, we are not able to share drawing supplies, so students must supply their own materials or work with less-than-desirable left over supplies.

I'd love to give my students each their own set of supplies to help them be inspired and feel successful, regardless of where they are learning.

These markers are excellent to teach basic drawing skills, and allow for extra self expression in my students artworks. I know they have yet to use this type of media and I hope that a marker set of this quality will inspire their creativity.
