Personal Artwork

Hello!
I am Mrs. Furlong and this is my ninth year as the art teacher at James Ward. I received my bachelor's degree in industrial design from the University of Illinois and my master's degree in teaching art from Columbia College Chicago. Prior to joining the James Ward team, I taught at Harvard School of Excellence for two years. My background has afforded me skills in drawing, painting, and ceramics and I bring these into the classroom as much as possible. My philosophy mainly revolves around choice based artwork. When a project allows, I find it important to allow students the ability to choose materials and subject matter. This allows students to take ownership over their choices and creations.
