Hello! I’m excited to start another year teaching Language Arts at Athlos Leadership Academy. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy playing pretty much every sport, especially wiffleball. I even built a stadium in my backyard! This summer I tried getting up on a water ski upside down and backwards. It didn’t work, and I got a bunch of water up my nose. I graduated from Saint John’s University with a degree in Education. I look forward to being in communication with you!

4th-8th Week of October 26th Art Lesson 

Title: Line Exercise 

A Note from Your Teacher:  

Welcome back, Athlos artists! Today, we will try out a common artist exercise that can help fine tune our imagining/envisioning skills.  

If you did not do so last week, make sure to E-MAIL me your responses to the “self critique” questions at the end of the video. It will be graded for points. Don’t worry about your writing; I just want you to show me that you can respond to your own artwork!  

To view the video, copy and paste the link down below into your internet browser (or simply press the “Ctrl” button and click the link at the same time). Feel free to pause the video as needed and as always, you are more than welcome to reach out if you have any questions…or just want to say, “hi” J
