Artist of the Month Jim McGee encourages the students he teaches to believe in themselves and to use art as a vehicle for self-expression. As an instructor at Workshop SLC to teaching students at Juan Diego Catholic High School and the Reid School, McGee challenges his students to find inspiration through quiet observation and an inquisitive mind.
