I am a MAT candidate here at Salem. Recently certified to teach k-6. My current position is a teacher assistant for kindergarten.
My former degree is Fine Art. I absolutlely love painting, so much so I call it my drug of choice. My speciality is painting portrait. Last spring I was commissioned to paint a portrait of the former mayor of Greensboro. I exhibit, all over the city every opportunity I get.
I love children equally as much as I love painting. My personal feeling is if you can help one child feel valued and as if they have something to contribute, you've given them something.
I am a divorced mother of two girls, one a rising sophomore at Parkland, the other a rising third grader at the Downtown school. Both my daughters are artisit too.
Wendee, I loved reading about your interests and talents. I have a teacher assistant who is also an artist; he is working on a wall-sized modern piece for my living room right now! Best of luck.
