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!

Curriculum

Students work on a variety of projects and media to develop confidence as artists. Fifth Grade focuses on art elements and basic techniques while Sixth Grade focuses on concepts, craftsmanships, and advanced techniques. Every artist will paint a canvas with acrylics, create original 3-dimensional ceramics, complete realistic and abstract drawings, have a clear understanding of art history, and develop personal styles in their artwork.

Art Club

Art club meetings will take place before school. All club information will be available after the first few weeks of school.
