Wanda Pope Currin is a compassionate art teacher who teaches her students how to paint and express themselves via still life, murals, and landscapes. Actively teaching since 1984, Ms. Currin encourages her students to use both water colors and oil based paints – in short, any of the mediums that help to guide the way of the artist. Ms. Currin, herself an accomplished artist, has exhibited her work in expos and art galleries all over North Carolina. However, "My students come first," she insists in the same manner and with the same conviction that a mother would speak of her children. Established in 1995, Currin's Art Corner in Zebulon, N.C., serves as her private studio and local exhibit space. "I teach kids from ages of 6 to 18," says Currin. "I have spent much of my life dedicated to educating and entertaining children." In addition to her Bachelor’s in Fine Arts, Ms. Currin has three associate degrees, in Computer Science, in Business Administration, and in Marketing and Retailing, respectively, and is licensed by her home state to teach grades K-12. While teaching and working new works, she continues to use the skills she’s learned to promote her work while attending classes in graphic design.
