The fast pace of integrating artificial intelligence in the educational setting has created new learning possibilities especially in creative subjects like art education. In this paper, it is suggested to consider ChatGPT as a Co-Teacher to demonstrate how generating AI may aid instructional procedures, increase student engagement, and facilitate differentiated learning opportunities. Being a smart assistant, ChatGPT aids in ideation, explanations of techniques, exploration of concepts and formative critique, hence replacing human art educators, rather than consuming them. The paper reviews the abilities of ChatGPT in a variety of creative settings, including painting, digital illustration, printmaking, 3D modeling, sculpting, and art history, and how AI-guided prompts, descriptions, and judgments can support the creative efforts of students and broaden their visual thinking. An organized Teacher-AI Collaboration Model is provided that describes the workflow of the art lessons that incorporate the points of ChatGPT intervention including: brainstorming, procedural guidance, assessment, and reflective practice. The model illustrates the advantages of the personalized coaching of learners, alternative perspectives, and trial and error through a series of case studies. Meanwhile, the paper touches on the most important issues concerning originality, authorship, and over-trust in algorithmic suggestions. Ethical concerns such as biases in datasets, cultural representation, and human creativity maintenance are taken care of to make the implementation responsible.
