Her Life is Her Art

Patricia Morgan is the art teacher at Canton High School. She was born in Indiana and raised in Fairmount. At the age of fifteen, she moved to western Oklahoma with her parents. After she graduated high school, she moved to Chickasha to attend USAO. After attending college for a year, she became a stay at home mom to take care of her three girls, Amanda, Sarah, and Emily. At the age of twenty-eight, she returned to school. When she turned thirty-two, she received her BFA and started teaching.

She is a very creative and outgoing person. She likes to teach art because she likes working with young people. Her favorite crafts to teach are print-making and basket weaving.  She hopes her students will remember how to contour draw, how to be creative, and her weird laugh.

Another job Mrs. Morgan has had was an administrative assistant for a design\build construction company. Her hobbies outside of school include landscape painting, sewing, crocheting, reading, fishing, and two-stepping. One thing most people do not know about Mrs. Morgan is that she has recently learned how to hunt.

Mrs. Morgan was a nerdy, non-athletic student in high school. She was in show choir, FHA, and band. She hates the phrase “I don’t know.” She thinks a person should have a reason or opinion for everything. Her biggest fear is snakes. If she could enroll in another teacher’s class for one day, she would choose Mrs. Haub’s because she likes to cook.

Mrs. Morgan likes living in a small town because it has a slower way of living and the people are much more friendly. Mrs. Morgan would describe herself as quirky, quiet, thankful person.
