About Me

I am an art teacher in Virginia Beach, Va. USA and I love any kind of hand made art. I am best with two dimensional art though I teach everything from metal and jewelry design to printmaking to AP Studio art. I'm kind of a jack of all trades.

I was married in Dec. 2009 and the event was a hand-crafted wonderland thanks to my mother. My mom is a major inspiration in my life though we make very different kinds of art. We challenge each other which is always good!

My Sister is the little goofball in my profile picture and that is her graduating from High School. She has Down Syndrome and is a constant source of crazy in my life. :-D

Favorite Movies

My all time fav. movie has to be "Robin Hood Men in Tights" closely followed by any Mel brooks or Monte Python movie. If you can't tell I love comedy and my immediate list of loves are as follows The Princess Bride The Wedding Singer Happy Gilmore Real Genius Bio Dome Clueless 10 things I hate about you I like many other movies as well as long as it is not Horror. I can't do Horror or realistic war movies...ew.

Favorite Television

Right now I am addicted to So You Think You Can Dance and Lie to Me. I also really enjoy Criminal Minds, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Glee, and Bones. We actually don't have TV hooked up in our house so we either HULU the shows or go watch them while working out at the YMCA. Hey, it gets us out of the house!!!

Favorite Books

I like a wide range of reading material. I really enjoy Fantasy writing like R.A. Salvatore, Elaine Cunningham or Terry Goodkind. I also enjoy C.S. Lewis...everything from the Narnia series to Mere Christianity. I think he is brilliant and easy to relate to. I also really like Wendy Alen's series the Chronicles of Brothers. REALLY interesting read about the background and story of the fall of Lucifer from the perspective of the angelic. I read a lot of books that others suggest to me as well :-D

Comment: I love the ATC you made - it's great! You definitely have a knack for shading! How did you and your friend make the ATC background?
Response: My friend Minders taught me and you roll wax paper through the cuddlebug, then iron the wax paper to glossy card stock. You then ink the surface with any colors (different inks do different things) :-D It was way fun and she is an awesome teacher!

I just invited you to be a member of Classroom ATC. Have you ever thought it would be fun to have you kids trade art with other students from around the world. I'm an art teacher from Minnesota, USA and I want to do a ATC trade with other art teachers so we can have a professional conversation to see if Swap-bot might assist in Classroom ATC Trades. Join our swap and group if you want to learn more.

I was just looking at the hand-drawn ATC you made me last summer (it's on my desk at work). Sad to see you left swapbot, but I wanted to let you know that I was thinking of you and appreciating your artwork today!
