Mr. DW's Art Room

Mr. DW's Art Room Welcome to “Mr. DW's Art Room”. This is a place that will help inspire insight, curiosity and the creativity in all of us My name is David J.

Winsch and I have been teaching K-6 Art for 8 years at Laramie County School District Number 2 in southeast Wyoming. My district is just east of Cheyenne, WY. I spilt my time between four elementary schools that are named after the communities they serve. You are probably shocked that I teach at four schools and to be honest I was shocked too when I was told that I would be teaching at four schools. I have come to view this as a positive rather than a negative. I am also a member of the GCAAC (Greater Cheyenne Art Advisory Council). The purpose of this committee is to advise the mayor of Cheyenne in regards to art and its value in our community. I created this blog to create connections with my colleagues in my county, state and the world to encourage curiosity that leads to discoveries, inspiration, and creativity in art and art education. As the only elementary art teacher in my district I am looking forward to the connections with my fellow Wyoming Art Educators and others that find inspiration, ideas, and a place to share in the world of blogs.

🎨💐 Happy Mother’s Day from Art with DW & Mr. DW’s Artroom 💐🎨
Today we celebrate all the moms, grandmas, stepmoms, foster moms, pet moms, and mother figures who inspire creativity, kindness, patience, and love every single day.

Thank you for encouraging imagination, hanging up our artwork like it belongs in a museum, supporting creativity, and helping young artists grow into themselves. ❤️

You are the heart behind so many masterpieces.

Wishing you a beautiful Mother’s Day filled with love, laughter, creativity, and maybe just a little less glitter to clean up today. ✨🎨

Ah yes… the dream job:
Covered in paint, explaining for the 47th time that glue is not a snack, and convincing students that stick figures do count as a starting point.
But honestly—this is it.
A good life isn’t clean or easy… it’s getting to pursue your passion, even when it’s chaotic.
For me, that’s printmaking, strappos, Wyoming fish, and helping students realize they’re more creative than they think (even when they fight it). 🎨
