Later she taught in Georgia’s Governor’s Honors Program for six years, having chaired the Visual Arts program for four of those.
She chaired the Department of Visual Art at Piedmont College for ten years before co-founding with her life-partner, the late Dr. Howard G. Hanson, the Dianne Mize Studio, where she taught until her retirement in 2007.
Dianne holds a Master of Fine Arts degree in Painting and received an undergraduate minor in music. Music has been as important to her as painting. During her years in Governor’s Honors, she devised a course called The Creative Process exploring how all creative acts flow through a similar process of becoming manifest even though the results might be vastly different.
Her investigations in the creative process confirmed her teaching philosophy of Individual Uniqueness asserting that when an individual is responding from his or her deepest innermost self, the results will be unique no matter their subject or genre. It is her insistence on claiming this uniqueness that has been the trademark of her teaching methods.
Dianne lives in the foothills of the Appalachians in Northeast Georgia with her schnauzer, Maggie. She continues to paint, write, play her hammered dulcimer and enjoy the mysteries of nature that surround her.
