Ms. Trish / Visual Arts K-4
I am so excited to begin my 11th year at the Arts Based School. Many of you know me from 1st grade or Kindergarten. My current home is the K-4 Art Room where I am loving it as the K-4 Visual Arts Speciliast! As a licensed K-6 educator I am experienced with curriculum and content. I have obtained my Master's Degree in Teaching where I focused on Visual Literacy and how making sense of what we see, each and every day, is a skill of massive importance. I am passionate about arts integration and can't wait to share incredible artistic experiences with our students. Everyone is an artist and the art room is the place to grow that creativity. Along with being a mixed-media, abstract artist; I am an avid reader and love to be outside experiencing the natural world. I have two daughters who are both ABS alumni. You will hear many stories of my daughters, my "favorite books" of which the list is endless and stories about my two dogs, two cats and the horses I ride in my spare time.
To quote the artist Keith Haring....
“Art should be something that liberates your soul, provokes the imagination and encourages people to go further.”
