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 meaningful artwork makes my career route so rewarding. 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 and gallery work. I am an oil painter so my strengths are in fine arts, but I'm looking forward to the challenge in teaching applied arts. I think that it could serve as a good source in alternative for teaching activities. This is my reasoning for choosing the theme for my mini-course. Check it out below!
