Art & Learning

When someone with real experience offers a gentle suggestion, it’s not criticism — it’s a gift. Our kids need more than praise; they need mentors willing to share what they’ve learned the hard way.

Feeling burned out in your homeschool? Here’s how art can reset the mood — without adding more to your plate.

Art is often the subject parents skip, but it’s more than a “nice-to-have.” In this post, I explore why teaching art matters, how it supports thinking and creativity, and how you can integrate meaningful lessons even on a busy homeschool schedule.

Copying teaches technique—but it’s not the same as finding your voice. In this post, I explore the difference between imitation and expression, and why helping kids discover their own style matters more than we think.

Stop feeling like art is just a “fun break.” This full-year art curriculum teaches real skills while fostering creativity, observation, and confidence — all designed for homeschoolers of multiple ages and abilities.

I didn’t set out to write a curriculum—I set out to give kids a way to really see. This art book grew from years of teaching, parenting, and watching students come alive when given space to create with meaning, not just mimic a project.
