About the Teacher

As a young child, Iraima Otteson developed a love for art. She came from Venezuela-South America and is a talented artist and teacher. Iraima has more than 20 years of experience as an artist and loves to teach children the joy and passion of art. Iraima is gifted not only as an artist, she sees every child as a potential creator. She has the patience to work with and help children find their strengths by allowing each of her students to be creative in their own way. Iraima respects every child's ideas while they find their strengths and develop them through imagination, visualization and effort, and that is what makes us unique. We value effort over natural ability, Iraima tells her students over and over because she believes that in life, effort and persistence toward our goals will help us succeed more so than natural ability. There are many children that are incredibly smart and talented, but unfortunately are afraid to try new ideas for fear of making a mistake. Iraima also said, Our studio is a safe place to make mistakes, it's actually a lab and we are at work building geniuses, not just artists! These kids will grow to have passion and love for life. Iraima Otteson, Hands on Art for Children Art Coordinator and Founder
