Teaching Artist Legacy Statement
I encourage self expression through painting and poetry. We tell stories, explore topics of social justice, environmental justice, personal history and internal reflection. Students learn the importance of preserving historical places in their communities. Reflection and sharing are encouraged developmental skills.
