My passion for art began when I was in 6th grade and has continued through all aspects of my life. My gift to teach art to others stems from the passion of those who have taught and encouraged me to make art. Their gift has become mine to give to you. Every child, teen, and adult needs a place to express themselves, explore, design, and create.

"Art does not reproduce the visible: rather it makes visible."
- Paul Klee
