"Creativity takes Courage"
-Henri Matisse
Mrs. Amick
My name is Lizzie Amick and I am thrilled
to be the Art teacher here at Eubanks. I graduated from the
University of North Texas
with a BA in Art. I have been teaching art since 2002 and have been
with Carroll ISD since 2006. As an artist, I enjoy oil painting,
abstract and modern art, and lithography printmaking. Teaching
art is my true passion and I enjoy sharing that with the wonderful students
here at Eubanks!
