"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we
grow up" Picasso
Welcome to the Lowell Art Studio!
I'm very excited to share my love for the visual arts with your child. My goal
is to give your child many stimulating creative experiences using a variety of
art media and techniques. Lessons are structured to teach elements and
principles of art and designs (lines, shapes, color, value, pattern, texture,
form, balance and unity).My approach to teaching art combines art
history,multicultural activities, visual art vocabulary, problem solving and
critical thinking skills and creative expressive experiences.All lessons cover
the Mass.Department of Education Standards and Frameworks.
The arts are an integral part of human experience and, therefore, an
essential component in the education of all people. They have equal value
with all other intellectual and creative pursuits and enable us to celebrate
and preserve our diverse cultural heritage. Students of the arts actively
participate in and experience their learning, using all senses while
discovering and developing their own unique intelligences and learning
styles. The mission of Watertown Public Schools Fine Arts Program is to
foster creative expression in students by providing the essential skills and
knowledge necessary for those who wish to pursue a career in the arts. We
also seek to create a sensitivity to and respect for all students, enhancing
the quality of their lives and an understanding of the diversity of human
expression in the global village in which we all live.
