Hi! I'm Bri! I have been passionate about art ever since I was little and I sprinkle a bit of creativity wherever I go. I'm a mostly self taught artist with a few art classes from school sprinkled in. I love working with bright colors and interesting shapes, I am definitely a sucker for anime and cartoon styles too. I'm super excited to paint with everyone!
1. Born and raised on Long Island, moved to NC in 2018 for my husband's career in corporate engineering. 2. Sushi. 3. I love to be able to help people step out of their comfort zone and try something that can have a beautiful result, a lot of people have no artistic confidence, and painting is a fun way to show that everyone can create something. 4. I went to a private school from 7-12 grade and only went 4 days a week. 5. if I could travel anywhere, I'd want to go back in time, "back to the future" is one of my favorite movies and I always thought it be so cool to relive the movie. 6. I make a joke that glitter is my favorite color because i love every color and it's what makes the world shine.
Hi, I’m Stacie! I am a native of North Carolina and an Art Educator at an amazing elementary school. I am an alum of Wingate University and a current student of the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, completing a Masters of Teaching in Art Education. I am a firm believer that everyone is an artist and that creating art is an experience to be enjoyed by all!
It is my earnest belief that creativity is magic, and I love getting to help other people discover what they can do with it! I am blessed to be called "Mommy" by a wonderfully silly little boy named Silas, “Miss Art Teacher” by around 400 little artists at the elementary school where I work, and "her again" by Starbucks baristas all over the Carolinas. I graduated in 2017 from UofSC where I majored in Creative Writing and minored in Art Studio. I've dabbled in nearly every artistic pursuit and drawn more joy than I can put into words from each. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to share that joy and love for creating in the uniquely vibrant yet relaxing environment of PWAT!
