Cassie Stephens
A graduate of Indiana University with degrees in painting and art education, Cassie was blessed to have done her student teaching in the magical land of Ireland! Upon returning she discovered that her parents had sent out 52 art teaching applications all over the United States on her behalf. On a whim, she decided to give one such place a try - Nashville, Tennessee - and landed her first teaching gig. After 15 years of teaching the same sad lessons and doing little creating of her own Cassie decided to create a blog that might help her snap out of her funk. Zip forward to present day and Cassie is still teaching in Tennessee - Franklin now and is still maintaining her blog. Cassie has managed to find her secret to personal art teacherin' happiness by connecting the passions of her life: teaching, creating and dressing like a crazy person!
