She is self taught. Laurie always loved Art and her mother brought her up in a very artistic environment. Both her parents were successful interior decorators in Beverly Hills. When Laurie's children started school she noticed there wasn't an art program. At private schools they had one. "I wanted my girls to have the opportunity to create like I had in Elementary school. In 6th grade one of my painting hung in the principles office for a long time (possibly years). This gave me the courage to continue painting later in my life even though no one really recognized my work as anything special. I knew I could impact children's lives by believing in them and encouraging them to express themselves. Now I have been teaching for about 11 or 12 years with great results. I developed my program by doing the art with the kids and finding what worked. I also wanted them to learn some art history and appreciation so included this as well. I was asked to put this in book form by my friends who are teachers and thus Sparking Creativity was written. I am now focusing on some of my own work. I have donated several pieces and sold to various people. But I have pursued selling my work although I would like to." This lesson will show teachers how to help children learn to turn their creative ideas into something real. A poem, a play, a piece of art."It always surprises me how good they are at doing this if they are free to follow on the journey you take them. when they are not worried about what someone else thinks. when you keep reassuring them that the joy of art is in the process." code pour embarquer la vidéo : >>> http://www.youtube.com/embed/B01WTwyjuLs <<< |
