Victoria Carnate (Mixed Media – Multicultural – Found Art )
About the Artist
My approach to art is holistic, utilizing art history, literature, music and visuals to teach diverse, multicultural art experiences. Students are free to fully assimilate the information presented, using ordinary and/or natural materials to create their own hands-on unique project. The end result is an immersion into art, culture and the creative process.
I am open to customizing curriculum to meet the needs of educators and students.
