With a new season, comes another round of fun and exciting drawing and painting classes! If you, your friends, family… or any groups you belong to might be interested in taking an art class with me, please share away! I have listed them below. I have two new classes: Coloured pencils and Painting in primaries (I’ve taught the latter before, but its had quite a facelift, so I consider it a new class overall! Perfect for those who want to know how to mix the colours they want!)

Building art lessons is creatively challenging, but super rewarding work. Thank YOU for subscribing and for supporting my art adventure! Feel free to contact me if you have any questions!
