I have been making art ever since I started taking lessons from the Holt School of Fine Art back in 4th grade. In Junior year of high school I started working for the Holt School at first as a sort-of "Office Assistant" who would help manage art supplies, document pictures of the students' artwork, and write press releases about some of our public projects, such as murals we make being donated to hospitals or schools. Over the summer I received training in order to work as an instructor in the fall. This held a whole new set of responsibilities, with me now working with children from ages 6 all the way to my own age. I also learned not just the art mediums of pastels, watercolor, charcoal, oil painting, and acrylic, but how to teach them. Below you can see some of works over the years when I was a student there.
