Oxana Babkina

Teacher
With two decades of ongoing artistic practice and a new Bachelor of Education, I divide my time between teaching general subjects at school and managing a private art studio that supports emerging artists through workshops and mentorship. I maintain an active studio schedule, producing work that explores a variety of themes, and regularly participates in juried shows. In the classroom, I emphasize critical thinking, collaboration, and hands-on learning.
I am an immigrant from Kazakhstan, arriving in 2012, and I’m a parent of two daughters who inspire my daily curiosity. I love traveling, seeking new experiences, and embracing opportunities as they come, guided by faith and openness to what God has prepared.
May this year be a journey of curiosity, courage, and compassion. I invite you to approach each challenge with an open heart, support one another in growth, and celebrate every small step toward your brightest, truest self.
