TICA

TICA, (Teacher Institute in Contemporary Art),  is a residency program for high school art teachers at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.  It was an amazing week of soaking in lectures on Modern painting, meeting with Chicago-based artists and curators, spending time in the museum, gaining perspective from faculty and peers, and painting as much as possible. My creative goal was to paint, experiment, stretch myself, revisit old and invent new, and not self-edit the process....JUST PAINT. 



I am so grateful for having been selected to be part of this program and work with such great art educators from around the nation.  Here are the photos of this weeklong experience.
