Welcome to Mrs. T's Art Education website. I have been teaching middle and high school art for the past four years, after being a professional photographer for over twenty years. I am also a graduate student with the University of Florida, Fine Arts. This site is for sharing ideas, lessons, and inspirations for my work as an artist, student, and art educator.
This is my self portrait as an art educator.
We are always moving fast, keeping many balls in the air.
In addition to teaching the skills and techniques of art: the
mediums of clay, paint, or photography, we also teach aesthetics,
art history, and art criticism. Contemporary art educators teach
care of the environment and other people through globalism and
multiculturalism, while making students feel loved, at home
and welcome in the art room. Technology is integrated as well as
new visual and popular culture. All this and much more is kept
in balance, while racing the clock. But I wouldn't have it any other
way!
