| Teresa Tipton |
Teresa loves to connect each person with their inner artist and explore their unique expression. She's been looking for a meaningful opportunity to make art with a group of enthusiastic and interested adults, and she found us!
For the last twenty-five years, she's been a teaching artist working internationally and has worked in Kenya, the Czech Republic, Austria, Tanzania, Taiwan & China.
She also has decades of experience in art education in the USA. She holds a Doctorate in Education from Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic, an M.A. from Antioch University in Seattle, Washington, and a B.A. in Printmaking from the University of Iowa.
Teresa also recently published a children's book titled, "Raven's Heartsong." Teresa created the visuals using mixed media. Each image includes photography with its unique painting.
"By guiding the innately creative part of each individual, I seek to nurture respect for individual differences and diverse learning styles and facilitate the expression of one’s personal uniqueness.
In doing so, I utilize active learning, inquiry processes, and reflective practices to advance the creative development of professionalizing communities of practice and life-long learning to guide one's passions, achievement, purpose, and fulfillment."
