Welcome to LVHS's Art Blog!

Welcome to Mrs. Parker's classroom blog. I am a new teacher here at LVHS but I am not new to Lake View. I am a graduate of LV and I am very excited to start my teaching career here with the best kids in the state! I will use this space to share projects, tips, photos and other information that pertain to Art 1 and Drawing. Let's make it a great year!

A little about me...
I grew up here in San Angelo, TX where (like I mentioned above) I went to Lincoln Jr. High and graduated from Lake View High School. I received my bachelor's degree from Angelo State University with a major in Art Education and a minor in English.

My husband and I both graduated from LV and we bleed blue! He is currently a coach and geography teacher at Lake View as well.


Things I am interested in...
Well art - duh! I currently have my own side business using my specialty in graphic design. I have a ton of knowledge regarding how to incorporate technology in your art - so get ready!

I am also very passionate about volleyball. I have been playing since the 5th grade and still haven't stopped! I will be at the volleyball games watching, cheering, and probably yelling for our girls! Go Maidens!

I have a passion for the arts and I am very excited to teach at my old stomping ground! I know that we have some talented kids and I want to be able to showcase their talent and heart the best way I can.

Throughout the year I will incorporate new and traditional techniques for Art 1 and Art Drawing. This blog is an extension of the learning experience - take advantage of it!

I will try to keep this blog up the best that I can, so please bear with me.

Thanks for stopping by!
