Miss Phyllis Willis

phyllis.willis@onslow.k12.nc.us                  For as long as I can remember, art has been a part of my life.  I started my first formal art lesson at the age of nine and have been painting ever since!  The influence art played in my life has been a true and lasting gift from above.    It is my goal to share this gift with your children in hopes that it will enrich their lives as much as it has mine.
