credo
As an arts educator, I am committed to creating an environment where students feel safe to explore and express themselves. An emphasis on process and experimentation means that students are free to try new techniques and means of expression — without the worry of failure.
More important is the act of participation
and authentic engagement.
on creativity:
“It doesn’t have to be this internalized, tormented thing.
It could be this peculiar, wondrous, bizarre collaboration,
a kind of conversation…”
— Elizabeth Gilbert
ART is…
“…an experience,
not an object.”
— Robert Motherwell (1915 – 1991)
“…about mystery.”
— Marisol (1930 – 2016)
“…a language...
from the heart.”
— Wynona Mulcaster (1915 – 2016)
“…love.”
— Holman Hunt (1827 – 1910)
