Kellen Bothwell
Hello! My name is Kellen Bothwell and I am thrilled to begin my eighth year as the art teacher at Patterson International. I believe strongly in the power of art education and have worked hard to create a curriculum and classroom environment that fosters creativity and self-expression. I prioritize creating a safe and inclusive space where all students feel supported and encouraged to explore their artistic abilities and take ownership of their art making. I strongly believe that every individual has a creative voice waiting to be heard and that imagination is an incredibly powerful tool.
In the art studio, students are encouraged to experiment, take risks, and challenge themselves creatively. I am dedicated to nurturing their artistic growth and helping them develop confidence. I aim to empower my students to become lifelong learners and creators.
When I am not teaching or making art, I enjoy running and spending time with my wife, Ruby, and our dog, Simon. We are thrilled to be expecting our first son in September!
I am looking forward to another year of creativity and exploration with the wonderful students at Patterson!
