Meet the Business Owner

Laura M.

Business Owner

«Ms. Laura» is owner and teacher at Mitchell Art Academy & Clay Studio. She studied Art Education K-​12 and established the Studio her senior year of college. She paints and draws in every medium she can get her hands in or on, and loves getting muddy on the potter’s wheels and while sculpting. You will almost never see her without some smudge of paint, charcoal or clay somewhere on her or her clothing, or without notes written on her hand so she doesn’t forget an idea before she finds paper to write it on! She isn’t satisfied unless a student leaves class that day wearing a smile and knowing something new. She teaches adults the same way she teaches kids, and she’ll do almost anything to make a lesson stick in your memory! She’s not below singing, rhyming, goofy jokes, bribery with candy, or even imitating voices of movie characters to keep everyone focused and laughing. (She’s been known to even sneek Art History lessons in that way! Gasp!!)
