About Mrs. Dix

I am a K12 certified art educator at Naples Classical Academy, and a working classical artist. My Bachelor of Fine Art is from Carnegie Mellon University, and right now I am a candidate for Master of Fine Art in Painting at Savannah College of Art and Design. To view my artwork and learn more about my artistic practice, please visit my website at www.monicadix.com.

To learn more about my teaching, listen to a conversation recorded for Hillsdale K12 Education Podcast, where I discuss beauty with Scot Bertram of WRFH Radio Free Hillsdale.

Homework

If you have been absent from art class, I recommend making an appointment to meet during my office hours, 7-7:30am daily. I can reteach concepts, explain assignments, discuss grades, guide work on studio projects, help you prepare for a quiz, etc. Remember that you are responsible for all missed assignments, notes, and studio projects.
