I am very excited to be going to Italy with 19 high school students from Peak to Peak and Boulder High Schools. This will be my fourth trip to Italy. I have been teaching art for 28 years and am a practicing fine artist of watercolors and batiks as you can see below. Please read more about me from the biography below. While in Italy, I will be encouraging students to learn about the culture, history and art that will be all around us while integrating their experiences into art during the workshops.
