⭐OUR TEACHERS ⭐

🖌️Miss Andrea
(Drawing, Painting, Digital Art)
“Teach through love, comprehension, and respect. I see students as more than a number, meaning that I don’t grade art, I see wonderful artists developing a growing skillset and discovering themselves through a creative outlet. I hope teaching art with my love for it, will inspire young creators to become their best selves.”

(Fine Art, Sculpture, and Healing Through Art)
“I believe in meeting everyone where they are at, and that every person has a uniquely profound and special story to share. This can emerge through creatively engaging with a prompt or art modality. I think part of teaching is also being a student, always open to listening, learning, and seeing things in a new way, through a childlike set of 'wonder' and awe. Life is truly our greatest teacher, and in conversation/collaboration with others we can nourish and develop the gifts and talents we all innately hold within!”
