Art Teachersvielesjsplacentia.orgBiographyHello, St. Joseph community, my name is Samantha Viele, and I am so blessed to be a part of the St. Joseph Community and the Art teacher for TK – 8th grade. I have my Bachelor’s degree in Art from Cal State Fullerton and I am currently working towards my Masters in Art Education. I love to learn and create when I can. I am married and have two children under the age of 4, one who currently attends St. Josephs and another who will be attending preschool next year. They keep me on my toes and I enjoy watching my two kiddos grow. My heart is full of joy working here at St. Joseph Catholic School. I am starting my 2nd year here and I enjoy every moment of teaching and creating with our amazing artists.
Teaching PhilosophyMy goal as the art teacher is to build confidence, encourage risk-taking, and challenge artists by turning mistakes into masterpieces. Art is everywhere and in all forms. It is my goal to introduce as much as I can and create a FUN filled environment so we ALL can learn and create together. I thoroughly enjoy capturing all the artists' attention and keeping them creating new things every week. As I walk into their classroom, It feels like it's the first time I walked into their room. Their excitement fills me with energy and joy and I hope to give that back to them. I LOVE EVERY St. Joseph Artist and I truly believe “Every Child is an Artist” – Pablo Picasso
