"Creativity Takes Courage"

Tomorrow is the first day of school in Rocky River! I am so thrilled to begin teaching at Kensington. It is always so exciting to see new faces, get into a routine, and start creating right away! This is going to be a fantastic year. Henri Matisse is the artist of the month in my classroom. His inspiring quote, “Creativity takes courage” is hanging in the hallway, welcoming each student this week. I am going to be thinking of this quote throughout the school year. It inspires, challenges, and encourages new ideas and welcomes creative processes. It provides a boost of confidence in ones artwork and thoughts. Each class will have the opportunity to discuss what this quote means to them. I can’t wait to hear what they have to say! What does it mean to you?
