A little about the artist and educator...
I am currently the middle school art teacher at Charlotte Public Schools. There, I run an after school Art Club and I host Knitting Club in my classroom during lunch. I went to Michigan State University for Art Education, where my concentration was printmaking. There, I also fell in love with handbuilding in ceramics and creating sculptures. I interned in Mason Public Schools at the Elementary and Secondary levels for 9 months. While at the High School, I taught a crafts class, a 3-D Art class, and co-taught Pottery with my mentor. When I am not teaching, I enjoy gardening, knitting, art making and relaxing with my husband, our daughter, and our cat. -Shannon |
