Art is interpreted in the eyes, thoughts and perspective of each individual differently, but one thing is for sure...the way we consider art and it's many forms important to each of us is all our own.

I am coming from a full heart, filled with colors, ideas and projects that come to fruition with the need of your help. The blessing of supplies, embellishments, crafting materials and other items to continue to provide and inspire the tapping into my students talents and aspirations.

My position of 25 years in the Department of Education has taken an unfortunate turn. I have been informed that due to budget constraints, my school will no longer be able to keep me on board, but my position with regards to teaching and supporting in the field of ART will. I will continue to enjoy the biggest and best part of my journey: MY STUDENTS. They are the little chapters in my story, my journey towards happiness that I MUST GIVE BACK TO, EVERYDAY I AM BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO.♥️

They've brought out the best in me...with every brush stroke, to every smile. From every tear we've shared to every crayon they've thrown, lol I LOVE THEM. And if you know my story? They've SAVED MY LIFE.

I don't want gifts for my birthday or Christmas. I'd like some nice markers and sketch books for my kids. ️

I don't want fancy clothes or shoes. I'd like some modeling clay and paintbrushes.️

I don't care for purses or getting my hair and nails done. I'd like some awesome beads and embellishments so my kids can gift a homemade friendship bracelet to a teacher they love.

It costs money to create. Money I can no longer share of my own. Any and all donations, even a dollar gets my students an experience and a chance to get in that paint and get creative...get happy...GET INSPIRED. I need your help to continue that. ❤️️️
