Watch as I blend, erase, and layer to create a dreamy abstract drawing..I show you a perfect technique to create juicy backgrounds in your Art Journal.

Everyone wants to be an art teacher! My class of 23 students is maybe half who want to be teachers, the rest are going into web design or something similar. Keep in mind, there is maybe one teaching job for every 50 art degrees given – more or less depending on where you live. Have a backup plan, because it may get worse with all the budget cuts – art is often one of the first things to go or be cut back on in many schools.
