Meet The Teacher

About Mrs. Pigues

I'm Mrs. Pigues, a Mississippi native and Memphis based visual artist and educator. I've been drawing ever since I could hold a crayon. My art teacher inspired me to always stay in art, which led me to pursue a career as a art educator. I'm a TN state-certified art educator entering into my 17th year of teaching with MSCS. 

I love inspiring young minds to never stop creating, and helping them to reach their full potential! I have the opportunity to touch the lives of so many inspiring young artists. My mission is to pass my knowledge on to my students. I truly love each and every one of them. 

When I'm not teaching, I'm in my studio creating. My work experience is quite diverse. I enjoy being a graphic designer, illustrator, and photographer. I've always been told by my peers to go beyond the classroom and show the world my beautiful gift. 

I'm excited to be teaching your child this school year!!
