Artist and Teacher

Summary

Artist and art educator from Fulton, NY. My degrees are in fine art, graphic design, and art education. I have taught every age level up through college art, graphic design, and web design, and I'm currently an elementary art teacher.

Statement

I have painted two local murals and am interested in drawing, painting, animation, digital painting, programming, and most recently drawing comics. Helping others recognize art as an ancient human gift and take command of their innate grasp of art is a large motivator for me. I am interested in art's many detailed processes, and the recombination of ideas made possible through constructive imagination and collaboration with others.
