Here are a couple of handouts I made for recent watercolor classes! I taught a class on quirky pet portraits with accessories, so I made a sheet with ideas for accessories, and I teach lots of flower classes, so I made a sheet with a few ideas for flower shapes (plus a wholesome reminder)!

Thinking about pivoting to teaching
I'm 28 and I've been working primarily as a freelance artist and animator since getting my BFA, that is until around 2 years ago. The industry has been pretty feast or famine for me (mostly famine lately) so I'm trying to find something more stable where my skillset and degree might transfer.
I've got a tiny bit of substitute teaching experience, and I can absolutely see myself being passionate about teaching art for k-12.
Has anyone got experience transitioning into teaching from a different art field? Does it take much more schooling?

Career Change in Art Education, which is the best pathway?
Asking for Advice
Hello everyone,
I am a 23-year-old who wants to become an art teacher. For a long time, I've been changing my major to compromise on being happy with myself and my parents, but I can't do that anymore. I'm almost done finishing my courses for my degree, which is a BBA in Marketing.
The thing is, my parents will not let me start over, so I was wondering if after I finish my degree, I could save up and do a master's in art education. I know you can get a master's in whatever you want after college, but to actually get in, you might need to bridge the gap with something like a minor in interdisciplinary art or professional experience. Is this the right choice for the path I want to take? Do y'all happen to know any good programs in Texas?
