Marsha S. Andreola
Marsha is currently working on her PhD in 'Teaching
Sacred Geometry through the Practice of Hand Drawing'. She is in her third
year at The Prince's School of Traditional Arts, in London, England. The
school was formerly known as VITA (Visual Islamic and Traditional
Arts) and was started by Keith Critchlow, Professor Emeritus. Marsha
undertook the doctoral program to study directly under the mentorship
of Keith Critchlow, who is internationally recognized as a leading
Luminary in Sacred Geometry as: author, teacher, artist, and architectural
designer.
In addition to studying with Keith Critchlow,
Marsha has studied Sacred Geometry and Numbers with Randal Carlson,
Islamic Geometry with Paul Marchant, 3-dimensional Geometry with
Jonathan Horning, Music & Geometry with Jane Weaver, and has
attended related Geometry lectures by John Michell, John Martineau,
Robert Gilbert, and Scott Olsen.
Marsha has been teaching Sacred Geometry drawing
since 2000. Her
orientation is to teach the basic Principles of Sacred Geometry through
the traditional practice of drawing Geometric patterns using a compass
and a straight edge.
Marsha's background is as an artist and a teacher. She received
her Bachelor of Industrial Design from Pratt Institute (1972), and
a Fifth Year Certificate in Art Education from the University of
Vermont (1976). Marsha has taught all ages, in both public
schools and the private sector, and has worked with a range of abilities
from brain-injured individuals to gifted & talented students. Marsha
has served as the American representative for Kairos, Keith Critchlow's
educational non-profit organization, since 2003. She currently
lives in the Asheville area of North Carolina (commuting to London
for her studies).
