IMHO - each of went into education to share our talents, expertise
and passion for learning with others.
I personally would not ask for any compensation for the art any more
than I would for pitching in on any
other project. Would the math teacher expect payment for doing a
workshop for parents or the home ec
teacher expect money for baking cakes. I did sell paintings to my
district (way under value) to decorate
the central office. But, if it were to support education I would not
want to be paid extra. Am I wrong here ?
