Nicole OldhamArt Teacher

I became interested in art at a young age…

and I’ve had a passion for it ever since.

It was love at first sight really, and I’ve spent ….

most of my life pursuing art and design.

Studying design as an undergrad...

enabled me to turn my love of art into an…

in-depth study of the creative process.

My early years were spent playing, making funny faces and card

houses.

My mom raised me as a single parent…

but she had some help from a few supporting

characters…

who encouraged me to dream BIG.

I never liked staying in one place for very long…

so I took it as a sign that I would like travelling

and exploring….and I did

Before I became a teacher, I worked at a Veteran’s Hospital…

and on a boat as an Event Planner…

before opening a small event

planning business.

This is my dog LUCY…

and she’s a very curious dog.

She sometimes chews my pants… but she’s so cool

that I don’t mind

These are my best friends…

and my boyfriend James.

What teaching means to me…

      “While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about.”

“While we try to teach our children all about life, our

children teach us what life is all about.”

“There are three things to remember when teaching:

know your stuff, know whom you are stuffing, and then

stuff them elegantly.” – Lola May

.

“It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in

creative expression and knowledge.”

Albert Einstein
