Cheers to 2019

A lot of time has passed since I last updated! Summer came and went... and almost the whole first semester of a new school year is over (mid-Jan). Here I am on my two week long holiday break and reflecting on a really great first half of the school year. The picture above was from our second annual alumni day, pictured here are some of the best humans I know; they have passed through the doors of my art room and are currently out there using their creativity in their every day lives.

What else have we been up into the art room?
- I taught a workshop about the new AP Studio art exam changed at the Balanced Mind Conference and for the Art Supervisors association
- We hosted our 2nd annual alumni day
-We had our first ever Bob Ross painting day
- My art classes have been cranking out awesome projects like our charcoal portraits, pop art portraits, pixel projects and watercolor figure projects.
-I’ve been posting mini videos to my YouTube channel that I have students use as supplemental content during class (look for MsLivotiArt)

I’m looking forward to a busy and positive second half of the school year when I get back on Jan 6th, and I hope to be more active in updating this regularly! Here are some student projects from this year so far:
