INTRODUCTION
Greetings and Salutations,
My name is Nelson Dungan and I am the Art Teacher at Beatrice High School. I am also an active professional artist. This has been an important asset in my years of working with students throughout my teaching career. Students have gained confidence in my knowledge as a teacher because of my experience as an artist.
I enjoy working with students of all ages. Teaching has been a very enjoyable and rewarding profession for me as I have watched hundreds of students create art. Many have gone on to become professional people in art related fields.
"A man who works with his hands is a laborer; a man who works with his hands and his brain is a craftsman; but a man who works with his hands and his brain and his heart is an artist."
