As we age, the grace to accept and learn from failure begins to diminish, and finding how to keep that positive energy and magic alive is important to my teaching. I find in working with children and and in the community, that those who are less familiar with art don’t judge so harshly and will learn from mistakes, taking huge risks and often finding a thrill whether they succeed or crash and burn. I help to teach parents, community centers, and schools about the importance of art, of independent exploration, and of modeling.
