BES Art Room

Hello, and welcome to the BES Art Room!

This is the starting point for every budding artist in Babylon Schools. My goal is to ensure each student has the time, materials, and guidance to explore a variety of art mediums. Throughout the year, they’ll experience different elements of art—line, shape, space, value, texture, and form—using watercolor, collage, tempera paint, clay sculpture, mixed media, and more.

As students progress from kindergarten through 2nd grade, we build upon these foundational skills each year. Kindergarten provides an introduction, 1st grade allows them to dive deeper, and by 2nd grade, they begin to achieve age-appropriate mastery.

I've been teaching art since 2001, and I love integrating art history into our curriculum to give students a well-rounded perspective on the world of art. Some of the artists we study include Georgia O’Keeffe, Andy Warhol, Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet, Henri Rousseau, Alma Thomas, Keith Haring, Pablo Picasso, and Romero Britto.
