    Hi, I’m Ms. Picou, and I teach Art 2 and Art 3. This is my fourth year teaching, and my passion for art goes back to the moment I could hold a paintbrush.

    I didn’t initially see art and education as connected paths, but that changed as I grew and explored both fields. I earned my degree in Psychology from the University of Texas in Austin and later received my Art Education certification from Texas State University in San Marcos. While at Texas State, I worked for two years for a nonprofit community art program, which deepened my belief in art’s ability to connect people and inspire growth.

    My goal is to encourage my students to nurture their creativity, curiosity, and love for art—both in my classroom and beyond.

    I am the sponsor of JBMS's Art Club. You can find that club page here: Art Club

    I am constantly creating art in my spare time--filling up sketchbooks with drawings and trying new mediums. I am very passionate about watching movies. My favorites are Studio Ghibli, Wes Anderson, the Spiderverse series, and stop-motion animation like Coraline.
