Connections

Mrs. Susanne Bowling, Art

I live in Chattanooga with my husband and favorite dog, Willow. I have a passion for all things creative, things in nature, science and art. I enjoy kayaking, gardening and yoga. On my bucket list is to fly a small plane, learn to fish, go to Africa and play in a great, big, fluffy snow again! I hope my artistic endeavors point the the Creator who is the giver of all good things! I believe in my students and see them as the bright lights of the future and it is a joy to teach and learn together at CVMS!
