Brad Gibbons teaches a variety of media to students of all ages and loves working with them to bring out their own unique artistic style! He enjoys the freedom that MCAS allows for creative expression, while at the same time building important drawing skills. He is amazed at what kids are able to do in a short period of time- he firmly believes in the Monart tenet of “Drawing is a teachable skill that anyone can learn! When not making art or music, Mel can be found at his favorite place on earth…the beach! It is his passion to help rid the local beaches of plastic litter, which unfortunately, is a huge problem. It is his goal to take this plastic refuse and make art from it. He hopes other artists will follow suit!
