I am an artist and teacher, with little distinction between the two. At Metropolitan State University of Denver, I teach art education. I also work with children at School of the Poetic City, my contemporary art camp. I make art as a way to think slowly about the world and to exchange ideas with others.
My research includes:
- contemporary art education with children
- arts integration
- social justice art practices with children
- the democratic classroom
- constructivist pedagogy
- painting and painting theory
- Reggio Emilia documentation
- Expeditionary Learning art curriculum
- arts assessment
- Denver Public School WPA murals
