About me

I am an art teacher in a high school and teach foundation level art courses. My students call me Miss Capp when they have gotten to know me better as a teacher. I started off at the College of Saint Rose and taught for the past two years in that area. I currently reside on Long Island. I've coached cross-country and was the adviser for a few grade levels, but teaching children how to make meaning artwork is by far the best I've made in my career. What I'd like to do in one of my art courses this year is base some projects on career fields in the arts. The other is a fine arts course and most of the projects will be based on art history. I am an oil painter so my strengths are in fine arts, but I'm looking forward to the challenge in teaching applied arts.
