A big welcome, artists!
I am SO excited you are here. Are you ready for an adventure?
First, let me encourage you. (You will find information on how to access the You ARE an Artist Facebook Group and more, below).
All of us are born with talent…an inbred wiring to create. As parents, grandparents and teachers, tapping this talent and helping students reach a rich satisfaction with creation of art is our goal! If you pick up a brush, pen, pastel chalk…or use your finger for glorious finger painting – you become an artist.
My goal as a teacher is to get that sometimes forgotten excitement about creativity back!
Here are a few resources to get you started.
It has been shown that if art curriculum is added to the daily schedule of school subjects, a student has a chance to tap that “left brain” activity. Could it be that a focus art and creativity could help with other studies?

Feed that inner child! Break out the chalk pastels! That’s just what we’ll do here in the clubhouse!

Remember – you ARE an artist! ~ Nana
