Visuals to teach Shape, Line and Texture
Three visuals that can be printed and displayed in the classroom for reference during instruction or art making. The first shows many different line styles. The second image explains the difference between implied textures and actual texture. The third image explains the difference between organic and geometric shapes. Each has images that help emergent readers or ELL students understand the information more easily.

Teaching style
Every day, I’m grateful for the chance to encourage self-expression in young learners. I truly believe that the more children are exposed to the arts, the more vibrant and hopeful our world will become.
Awards & shining teacher moments
One of the highlights of my career was serving as a lead teacher with Philadelphia Mural Arts, where I had the incredible experience of co-teaching the painting of the longest mural in the city. In addition to classroom teaching, I also enjoy working in other artistic mediums, such as stained glass, which I’ve taught at the James A. Michener Art Museum.
