Olivia B. – K–5 Itinerant Art Teacher, Rural Arkansas
“As the sole art teacher traveling between three elementary schools, I desperately needed consistency without sacrificing creativity. Artastic Collective gave me a full year’s scope-and-sequence that’s both standards-aligned and wildly engaging. The kids light up when they see the vibrant example images, and behavior issues have dropped because they’re genuinely engrossed. Administrators love the clear learning objectives; parents love the stunning art that comes home; and I love that I can finally walk into each classroom confident, organized, and excited. It’s my all-in-one art lifeline!”
Does this sound familiar?
Â
You know you want your year planned, your evenings and weekends free, and your students engaged in meaningful art… but you don’t quite know how to get there.
Â
Let’s face it — there’s nothing more frustrating than spending hours scrolling Pinterest or Facebook groups for art lesson ideas, only to feel like you’re still patching things together. Nothing ever seems to line up into a clear, year-long plan.
And there’s nothing more disheartening than having no real guidance on how to put it all together — the pacing, the routines, the behavior management, the assessment, even the community-building that makes a classroom flow. Maybe you’ve tried to sketch out a few months, but it’s not quite working. You’re still left wondering where to begin and how to keep it going all year long.
You’re not sure what lessons to start with in September, or how to set up routines that make the year run smoothly. You’re not sure in what order to teach the Elements of Art or the Principles of Design, or how to make sure you cover all the curricular content. You’re not sure how to keep students engaged with lessons that connect to their interests and reflect diversity. You’re not sure how to be proactive with classroom management, or how to cut down on planning and prep so you’re not burning out before October.
Other people make it look easy. But for you? It’s been anything but. You thought the hardest part was going to be getting your teaching certificate (or choosing to homeschool), but as it turns out, that was only the beginning. And now you feel like you must be missing something. And you’re not alone — most teachers are.
Well guess what? You are missing something.
The truth is: having access to a comprehensive, growing art resource library changes everything. When you have ready-to-use lessons, guidance for planning your year, strategies for classroom management and assessment, and even a supportive art educator community, teaching art becomes lighter. Easier. More joyful.
The problem? Resources like that are almost impossible to find. Pinterest won’t give you pacing. Random downloads won’t help you set routines. And very few art resources address both the lessons and the teaching strategies that make the year run smoothly.
But what if there was one place that gave you both — a library that not only provided you with hundreds of lessons, but also walked you through planning, teaching, and managing art with confidence?
Hi! I'm Kathleen, Ms Artastic!
and I want to help you solve your planning problem for good!
And there was once a time I was so exhausted and overwhelmed that I almost walked away from it all.
Ever since I could remember, I loved Art. Whether it was obsessively drawing cartoons with books or T.V. as a kid or creating with clay in my High School Ceramics classes, I LOVED Art.Â
I became both an artist and a teacher. My initial excitement and passion for teaching was depleting with endless searching for resources, planning, and throwing spaghetti at the wall and hoping it'd stick. My “This is it! This is my moment!” was turning to inward thoughts of failure.
I made a decision. I would change how things were going… from constantly searching, always tired, and the endless rat-race… And be that person with a cohesive art program. I would create Art Lessons that KIDS LOVED. That kids WANTED to make. That ENGAGED THEM. Let them EXPLORE, be CREATIVE, but also that taught them the curricular content.Â
I would be the person that creates new Art Resources relevant to the needs of both teachers and students. I want to provide teachers with the easy-to-use art resources they need to plan their year and inspire kids with creative art lessons that THEY wanted to make and that reflected CURRENT times and interests.
So I opened my blog, Ms Artastic, and started developing and sharing art lessons. I started making my ideas and resources available to other educators. From this I was able to get feedback from educators on their needs and wants for Art Educational Resources and Lessons and I took this feedback and developed, honed, and perfected my art lessons over the last 10 years. And now my art resources have been assembled into an art curriculum for teachers!
I have transformed my own path from foggy to clear and comprehensive. Now it is YOUR turn for a transformation!

SAMPLE LESSON:
"I want to let you know how much this membership has helped me out this past year. The lessons are fun, engaging, well written, easy to follow, and have been an absolute blessing for me!
We all get stuck in a rut of doing the same thing that we think works, but every once in awhile, you get challenging classes, bored students and your main things are not working.
By joining the Artatstic Collective, it has helped me in avoiding the stuck and boring rut. I teach Pre K 3 thru 12. The lessons have been wonderful, and Kathleen's compassion for loving and teaching Art are amazing and exactly the breathe of freshness I needed.
This has been one the best decisions I have made in my Art teaching career and I would fully give it 100 stars and recommend you join as well. You inspire me, Kathleen, to be a better teacher for my kids...........that is everything to me. Have a Happy New Year and take Care of you, so You continue Helping us!!!! Love, Love, Love You!!! Fondly, Kathy Barthel Greenville, NC."

INTRODUCING THE ARTASTIC COLLECTIVE
Â
The art resource library membership that will help you plan, organize, and teach art with ease — using my 3-Phase Proven Process plus a growing library of fully planned lessons for grades K–9.
Â
The Artastic Collective is more than a curriculum. It’s a comprehensive library of art lessons, projects, and teaching tools designed to help you save time, reduce stress, and confidently lead your students through meaningful art experiences.

-Penny A.

-
Plan your entire year quickly and with confidence.
