Amber Martin
Bio:

I grew up in the midwest and graduated from Ball State University with a degree in Art Education in 2002. In 2003, I moved with my musician husband to San Diego, where we both began looking for teaching positions. I have taught art in several public schools since 2005 and am ready to try something a little different. I have an incredible passion for art and for teaching, and have taught practically everything to any age group. I know in my heart I am a teacher, and a Califorina girl... I love surfing and yoga, walks with my husband and my dog, music, and TEACHING ART! Check out my website www.ambermartin-art.com!

It takes a lot of courage to put your thoughts, feelings or values onto a canvas. Young artists especially need some encouragement. I love teaching art. It’s exciting and I thoroughly enjoy it. I create a warm and nurturing environment for artists of all ages. I truly believe that everyone has an artist inside of them. That’s one of the beauties of art....beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and there are many many, beholders. Inspiration is all around us!
