Born and raised in NJ, Jo O’Mara earned a bachelor of fine arts degree in media design from the New York School of Visual Arts. After a successful career in graphic design, she followed her heart into art education. The last 9 years have been spent teaching the basic elements of art, drawing skills and art history to young children. Her fun and engaging teaching methods provide a comprehensive foundation of art education for pre-K and elementary aged children alike. She is in the process of creating two additional titles, "More Elephants of Art" and "Mouse Masters", a fun intro to art history and styles.
