My name is Carly and I am an art educator and artist, living and working in Melbourne.

I love to create art, talk about art, look at art and show others how to make art a part of their lives.

Over the past year I have moved from working full time in a secondary school teaching art to a new ‘life style’… I work as a casual relief teacher in Primary and Secondary schools. I am studying a Master of Cultural Heritage (Museum Studies) at Deakin University semi full-time. I volunteer at Art museums and galleries facilitating education and public programs. Currently I am working at Deakin University Art Gallery and Collections creating some education resources for their sculpture collection. AND I try to do as much art making as possible – sometimes for an exhibition, sometimes for teaching and sometimes just because…love.

I have called this blog art on tuesdays because when I use to work full time(ish), tuesdays were my studio art making days. I really enjoyed having one day a week dedicated to my own art and I miss it now things are a little more all over the place. Maybe I will try to add some art or art thoughts here each Tuesday?
