Access your inner artist, realize your creative potential, and have FUN!

Have you always wanted to learn to make art but…

  • you didn’t know how to get started?
  • you thought you have to have natural talent?
  • you thought it would be too hard?

I will help you get started. 

I will meet you at your level of ability and skill, and teach you what you need to know to move forward. I’ll lead you step-by-step to where you want to go.

I will show you that talent is overrated. 

What many people think is natural talent is really just lots of practice! A lot of what people observe and think is the result of natural talent is really just practice and experience. Don’t compare your first day of art lessons with someone else’s years of experience! It takes NO TALENT at all to get started, and every person whose artwork you love and admire started exactly where you are–they were beginners once, too!

I will help you build on small successes to achieve greater successes in your artmaking.

I have tried and true methods that will baby-step you through the processes that will scaffold your learning experience. You will learn the easy stuff before you learn the hard stuff (walk before you run) and as you learn the basics it will all begin to feel natural, and learning the more advanced techniques will be easier. You will have “natural talent” before you know it!
