I am a TEACHING artist.


I have wanted to teach art as far back as I can remember, and I love what I do!  I am committed to being a lifelong learner, as evident in earning my MAEd in May 2009, and also by my quest for National Board Teacher certification, which I achieved in November of 2010. (I am working on my renewal right now- wish me luck!)  

Earlier this year I was recognized as my school’s Teacher of the Year and Senior High nominee for the Dwyer Award.  I also received recognition from the Palm Beach Cultural Council as a MUSE Award recipient (Liman Excellence in Arts Education) and most recently as a finalist for the Central Palm Beach Chamber of Commerce ‘Women of Worth’ award in the Education category.  To say that it has been a whirlwind would be an understatement!

I am in my sixteenth year of teaching and have taught in the public and private sector, all grade levels and I also have experience with Distance Education at ECU as a teaching assistant for ART-1910, an undergraduate level art appreciation course. I continue to create my own artwork through commissioned and commercial works, and my daily art- which is documented here on my site and on social media. 

Outside of the classroom I continue to pursue the role of educator; I have taught summer art camps in North Carolina and here in Florida for the Armory in West Palm Beach.  I have also taught classes at Muzart in Hollywood as well as adult 'paint party' classes.  In addition, I also tutor privately.  (More info here)
 I am committed to my growth as an artist as well as an educator, which I hope reflects in the quality of instruction that I deliver to my students.

Me and my boy B...fellow artist, teacher and I am pretty sure he is my brother somehow! 'Round these parts we are known as the 'B & G Express'- an art teachin' tag team! (well, in our own minds at least!)

*So much of the docs above focus on my work with older students, but I am pretty good at working with the little folks, too!  CLICK HERE to see a slideshow of work created by elementary students I have taught at WGP (K-2nd) and IMS. (5th) ..and also in Armory Art Camps (K-5)!




​NOTE: I used to toy with the idea of a separate teaching blog and then took it off the main menu 'cause I decided to integrate posts about my teaching in with my art ('cause I'm a TEACHING ARTIST!)  Here is a link to view that ol' blog...it's not up to date but still has some fun pics and good info;
