About the Artist:
During an arts residency or workshop my focus is on inspiring students to think and see more broadly. As an artist and teacher, I delight in fostering excitement for the discovery of new ideas and the satisfaction of having a creative vision and carrying it out. My role is to stimulate, guide and champion my students’ efforts. I set the bar high and then enjoy jumping over it with them. Through original and engaging lessons, I model conceptual, visual and tactile skills such as drawing, painting, collage, and sculpture. In addition to working in the schools, I have developed workshops and taught all ages through institutions such as the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis College of Art and Design, Minnesota Museum of American Art, and the Science Museum of Minnesota.
Teresa has developed and led art programs with diverse adult and senior populations including community mural design, collage, drawing and painting, workshops for cancer survivors and lessons for patients at bedside.
