Thank you for viewing my website. I have been teaching art for 18 years.  For the past 10 years I have focused on creating a visual art curriculum that supports students with diverse ability levels.  

I teach art at two amazing schools.  At the first school I teach students ranging from 3 to 21 years old with special needs.  At the second school I teach students  in grades 2-8 with emotional challenges.  I have learned so much from my students.  They have taught me that every student can be inspired through art, learn through art, and create amazing art.

The art projects on this site have been taught to students of all ability levels. The students work in a choice based art education environment that supports the diverse needs of each student.  I use sensory elements and differentiation to encourage students to create.  My curriculum follows the state standards for visual arts along with adding art appreciation, art history, and core curriculum themes to help students engage in their art. 

I hope you and your artists can benefit from viewing my projects.
