About Me
About Me
My name is Nicole Rocheteau. I graduated from Columbus State University in 2022 and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a psychology minor. I focused in painting and ceramics, and learned skills in oil painting, watercolor, acrylic painting, handbuilding, and wheel throwing. I am currently pursuing a Master of Art Education at the University of Georgia. My goal is to become a full-time art teacher so that I can continue creating and share my love of art with others.
​
I began my teaching journey in 2017, where I worked as an assistant teacher in summer camps. After two years of assisting, I was promoted to teacher for these camps, where I taught ceramics and mixed media projects to a range of students aged 6-18. I was then promoted to art camp director in the summer of 2023. After, I taught handbuilding and wheel-throwing classes for two years for children and adults. I hope to continue helping students develop their art skills, help them create beautiful works of art, and help them build good character.
