Art is so much about empathy and viewing someone else’s perspective. Every person creates a different drawing or painting, even though sometimes they reference the same subject matter. I love seeing so many possibilities and letting our students understand how important it is to surround themselves with differences. By respecting and being open to everyone’s point of view, we open ourselves up to boundless possibilities.
