Hi! I'm Miss Leah
Welcome to my  art class. Art is about self-expression. I don't want to see how well students copy what I do but rather see their personal expression shine through what I teach. I am an elementary school art teacher in Virginia and a professional artist/painter.  I have a B.S. in Art Education and a B.A. in Fine Arts from Pennsylvania State University. In my free time I love gardening and hiking.
