"I want to make beautiful things, even if nobody cares." 
- Saul Bass


"And isn't that the whole point of things- that they connect you to some larger beauty?  Those first images that crack your heart wide open and you spend the rest of your life chasing, or trying to capture, in one way or another?" 
- excerpt from The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt


Hello!  I am an Art teacher at Mira Costa High School in Manhattan Beach, CA.  I was born and raised in the South Bay and graduated from MCHS in 2006.  I received my Bachelor's degree in Art History from CSULB and my teaching credential from CSUDH in 2015.  I am thrilled to be teaching in my hometown and am incredibly grateful to be at such a wonderful high school.  I currently teach AP Art History, Art 1, and Painting.  In addition to teaching, I am a painter!  I LOVE to create art and occasionally display and sell my work.  If you'd like to check my pieces, please visit www.amberflorareid.com
