Melissa has been with our program since August of 2008. She currently teaches our Thursday evening studio art class in Akron and our Wednesday morning community class in Barberton. She resides in Akron, Ohio which is also her hometown. She attended the University of Akron for Music Education. She loves art and her other hobbies include: reading, spending time with her family and music. Her favorite art medium is paper or clay, but she says that KidzArt has re-introduced her to chalk pastels, which she also loves using. She is inspired by artists like: Van Gogh, Picasso, Miro and Matisse. So far, her favorite KidzArt projects have been: The Under the Sea Octopus, Stacked Animals, Chinese Dragon and Bunny Sitting on Chair (some of which are pictured below!)
Melissa works very well with children of all ages and her artistic talent is very evident! Here is some of her recent artwork:
Thank you, Melissa for being a valuable part of our program!
