Do You Need to be an Art Teacher to Teach Art?

I am. I am an artist and I do teach art. You do not need to be an artist to teach art. You do need to have a greater appreciation of the arts and master some skill of the arts. However there are some teachers that are not great artists, but there are some artists that make worse teachers. There must be some mastery of the manipulation of materials, and there must be some talent however stylized, but the educator need not be a master of all arts or even one specific discipline. The subject of art has an infinte amount of facets of learning. From formalizism learning the medium and skill, to contextualism that involves communication of thoughts, concepts, or feelings. To art history which gives these foundations. The width and breath of the subjuct is so large it combines all the subjects like math, science, literature, into itself. Art is where you can express what has been learned through application.

    I have a passion for the visual arts and love sharing it with others. I have enjoyed teaching all ages and love to incorporate art history and traditional disciplines as well as innovative ideas. Art is vital to who I am as a creator and educator.
