Sally is a native of England. She came here in her early 20’s, got married and had eight kids that she homeschools.

She is a trained artist that has become passionate about passing on her skills. At the age of ten, she knew that she wanted to be an artist and thought that is was a career for people that had a “gift”.

She followed her dream and attended Loughborough College of Art and Design in England where she obtained her degree in art.

As a homeschool mum, she realized that art is not just for the gifted, but can be taught incrementally like any subject.

She saw first hand how traditional teaching methods for this subject can be detrimental. Now, she wants to share her passion with children young and old to ignite their own love of creating art.
