I taught high school art for 30 years. I loved my job & look forward to each new adventure. My degree is in graphic communication. As the art teacher I was asked to do many different things for teachers & administration. A good friend suggested that I try to sell some of my handouts and posters. After looking through my stuff I realized I have a lot to offer up. Here goes...This is really fun!
