UArts Summer Pre-College 2012

I just wanted to give a big thank you to my students in the University of the Arts Summer Pre-College program. I also wanted to thank my T.A. Yara and fellow teachers Patch and Larsen. This year was great. I had the privilege of teaching students in the Illustration track, where I taught 2-D Fundamentals. It was hands-down the highlight of my summer!

The work looks awesome on the walls. Keep at it. I can't wait to see the amazing art and design work you produce in the future!

UARTS Pre-College Summer Illustration Classes

This summer, I have been teaching at University of the Arts' Pre- College Summer Institute. I was asked to teach two Illustration classes. In my opinion, it's been one of the best courses I've taught. The students created custom logos, spot illustrations, and gig posters using traditional and digital illustration techniques. I am really impressed with the students in this program. Not only are they electing for more school in the summer, but they come to work.

Working with these students has made my summer. Their ambition and work ethic is inspiring. I find myself energized when I come home to sit right down at the desk and draw or take my sketchbook out to a park. These classes have been a great reminder of why I love to teach and why I love to make art.
