As the end of the year comes to a close and I’m packing up my classroom I look back on my seven years as the art teacher at Hanahan Middle School and smile.  I have met some wonderful friends and coworkers who I love dearly.  I have learned from my students and I appreciate all they have shared with me.  I love the teacher that I have become and as I set off on my new adventure in international education I feel prepared for the next step.  In the words of the late Maya Angelou,

“Do the best you can until you know better.

The when you know better, do better.”

Resin Pianting

I’ve started my first resin painting. First I hollowed out the pages of an old book to create a frame. Next I collaged a background and then placed twigs on top of the collage before pouring the first layer of resin. Next I plan to paint leaf foliage and other details before pouring another layer of resin. Fingers crossed!
