My online classroom is directed to those who are Art Curious.

As a former Teacher, Video Game Animator and Elementary Art Specialist I'm aware that our young people and beginning artists are creating digital content. So, I wanted to create a classroom space where beginners of all ages can find inspiration and have a space to visit and explore various outlets for that digital content.

In my own classrooms I taught these lessons which were carried into Microsoft Publisher in class websites. We used our STEM (STEAM) curriculum as the focus for our art projects and I’m structuring this class to provide fundamental art instruction with the free tools in your Google Account. Google Drawing provides a strong introduction to simple Digital Graphics. Scratch is another free software which I use to instruct students toward success in moving graphics on the screen. It’s a powerful animation and video game teaching tool.

I’m creating videos which will evolve this type of instruction and eventually progress into Photoshop and Illustrator where I continue to create my caricature and cartoon illustrations. Beyond the creation of digital artwork I’d like to continue to instruct within this platform where to take your work next into marketing your artwork on product merchandise.
