I continue to learn new methods for my own artistic <br /> expression by educating myself through books,tutorials, and classes in order to improve my own art <br /> making skills and to enhance my teaching. I support local artists by attending shows and exhibitions <br /> and maintain relationships with former students who have gone on to pursue careers in visual art. <br /> I am a conversational Spanish speaker. <br /> PROESSIONAL AFFILIATIONS AND INVOLVEMENT <br /> Durham Art Guild, Current Member Artist <br /> National Art Education Association(NAEA), Current Active Member(attend anual conferences) <br /> Author/Presenter, "Altered Books, Altered Minds,NAEA Convention, Seattle, 2011 <br /> New York State Art Teachers Association(NYSATA), Former Chair and Member, 2001-2005 <br /> John Dewey Society, 2002-2004 <br /> Attendee, Annual"Learning and the Brain" Conference in Cambridge,MA, 2003 <br /> Author/Presenter, "Art and Mental Illness,"NYSATA Conference, Albany,NY, 2002 <br /> Author/Presenter, "Art and Aging,"NYSATA Conference, Rye,NY, 2001 <br /> EXHIBITIONS OF PERSONAL ARTWORK <br /> Solo Show,Perch Studios, Carrboro,North Carolina, September and October 2016 <br /> DAG Members' Showcase,Durham Art Guild, Durham,NC, April-May, 2016 <br /> Solo Show,HQ Raleigh/Artspace, Raleigh,NC January-March, 2015 <br /> Emerging Artist Solo Show, The Carrboro ArtsCenter, Carrboro,NC,December, 2015 <br /> Carrboro ArtsCenter Community Show, Carrboro,NC,August, 2015 <br /> DAG Members' Showcase, Durham Art Guild,Durham,NC,May/June, 2015 <br /> Carrboro ArtsCenter's Instructors' Show, September, 2014 <br /> DAG Members' Showcase, Durham Art Guild, Durham,NC,August, 2013 <br /> Juried Exhibit: "Unexpected Readings" Chapel Hill Library Inaugural Reopening,NC,April-July <br /> 2013 <br /> Juried Exhibit: "Scapes", Durham Art Guild, Durham,NC,May 2013 <br /> Juried Exhibit: "Transitions", Durham Art Guild, Durham,NC, Feb-March 2013 <br /> Juried Exhibit: Carrboro ArtsCenter Community Show, Carrboro,NC,Dec. 2012 <br /> 3 <br />
