Private Instruction
I offer one-on-one instruction geared to meet an individual student’s level, goals and schedule.
The classes are offered near my home, where I maintain a small teaching studio. Before taking on a student for private study, I meet with them to view their artwork and discuss their goals and needs. The ensuing lessons are usually 2 hours in length, tailored specifically for that student, and include assigned homework. Online instruction can also be arranged.

Through observation of still life setups, practice, painting exercises and mixing paint, learn how to see and compare colors for their values, temperature and intensity. This workshop is designed to support beginners, however, students of all levels are welcome.
