When I called Tennille to invite her to appear on the show and talk with me about creativity, she said, “I’d love to! Creativity is my thing!”

Tennille studied art and art history at the University of Tulsa and Administrative Leadership at OU Tulsa.

She is an artist in residence at Hillcrest Hospital, where she facilitates art with burn unit and brain trauma recovery patients, among others, through the Arts and Humanities Council’s Art of Healing program.

She has been teaching, creating curriculum, facilitating art, and training others to work creatively with children in Northeastern Oklahoma for over 20 years. 

Affectionately know as “the baby whisperer,” Tennille has three (mostly) grown children of her own.

Her work has been featured in Art Focus Oklahoma and Tulsa People magazine, and her community artwork is on display at various locations in Tulsa. 

Get your cup of coffee or tea and join us for a conversation about creativity!

Until next time,
