The Best Dressed Art Teachers

Deyana Matt

Reading the title of this article and then viewing the photos might leave you a little stumped. “Best Dressed?” you think, “why these art teachers look crazy!” Exactly. Because, let’s face it, if it’s one thing that we art teachers are known for, it’s our colorful sense of style. Not everyone in our individual schools “gets it” but, like some sort of secret handshake, we do.

For that reason, I decided to hold a contest on my blog highlighting the very best of the artfully dressed. I wasn’t sure just how well the contest would be received until two-dozen folks submitted photos and over 2000 people cast their votes. I suppose that means quite a few of us are in on that secret handshake, eh?

So, without further ado, let me introduce you to The Best Dressed Art Teachers:

Just in case you thought dressing crazy was only for the elementary art teachers, I’ll have you know that Deyana Matt is a fun-loving middle school art teacher.

Mike Kantor
