Helen Klebesadel (MFA 1989). In addition to teaching workshops nationally and internationally, Helen has taught for UW-Madison, Beloit College, and Lawrence University, where she taught for ten years, earned tenure and periodically chaired the art department. Helen has taught contemporary theory, art foundations, and a broad range of 2-D and 3-D art courses and workshops for over 30 years. In addition to her expertise in watercolors and other painting media, she has taught all forms of printmaking, as well as drawing, mixed media, computer aided imaging and book arts.
Helen is also a certified Creativity Coach through the Creativity Coaching Association. In addition to traditional 'talk' coaching, she regularly uses mixed media and collage as part of her arts-based creativity coaching workshops. Helen believes art-making is a form of pre-verbal thinking and problem solving that can be applied to our work to enhance and expand the place of creativity in our lives.
Helen also has a line of fabric and wallpaper based on her watercolors for sale at http://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/helenklebesadel
