Art Education by.Leigh Ann.
I was too tired to give my thought on this last night. I advocate for money and volunteer work in the school systems for Art Education. I spent every Thursday in my sons 5K class as a volunteer arts and crafts instructor(it was private 5K so I didnt need any formal education). Only one elementary school in our area has a full time art teacher-The elementary school where my son went finally got a part time art teacher when he was in his last year there. Since, he has had little Art education in school. So, he gets it from me and his father(who teaches him photography). He will be able to take art next year in the eighth grade for the full year, if he chooses. It annoys me that the arts are at the bottom of the list where funding is concerned in grades 1-12. My other thought is that everyone can do some type of art if they only believed in themselves and would take the time to see. So, encourage your friends towards the Arts ~~~~ peace~~~ Leigh Ann
This painting is named "SunDown." It is created on canvas paper in acrylics. My friend Hermes encouraged me to use vivid colours and to paint. Hermes is great to share with his knowledge of art...Leigh Ann
