Welcome! I am an elementary art teacher teaching grades K-5 in New York. I am in my 5th year teaching and have been so inspired by the work other art teachers have posted on the internet that I wanted to start my own blog to share all of the ideas I have come across. I love creating lessons and hope that you will find some inspiration of your own through my work.
