Welcome to my blog! I'm hoping to compile my adventures and experiences as an elementary art teacher here. This blog is full of art lessons, ideas, student artwork, and resources for parents, students, friends and other art educators. Enjoy!

Van Gogh Sunflowers
Second graders learned about the artist Vincent Van Gogh. They studied his still life paintings and then created their own sunflower college inspired by Van Gogh.
Primary Popsicles
First grade students learned about the primary colors during this project! They painted a paper using the primary colors red, yellow and blue. Once the paper was dry, they cut out the popsicles and glued them to a background filled with lines and patterns. Check out their artwork below!
Fall Trees
Once during the 6 day art rotation, the special education class comes to see me for 20 minutes of one-on-one art time. Last week we made fall trees. This projected worked on fine motor skills of painting, gluing, drawing and scrunching paper. Check out the beautiful fall trees below!
Birds of Color
Kindergarten students learned about the 6 basic colors, order of the rainbow and basic shapes (circles, triangle and square) in this project! Check out their colorful birds below!
