I am here to inspire and encourage your creative journey!
I have benefited from the teaching, inspiration, and encouragement of so many wonderful fellow artists and mentors! My desire is to “pay it forward” and help you achieve your creative and artistic aspirations all while tapping into the joy of the “making”!
I love working with artists of all experience levels and seek to instill confidence and joy as you build your knowledge, skills, and abilities in pursuit of your creative vision and goals.
My role is to guide, encourage, and support you in…
- Applying clear and simple methods to approach new mediums, techniques, and processes
- Experiencing the joys of creating and the satisfaction of conquering fears and doubts
- Building mastery and confidence to enable you to achieve your desired results
- Dispelling the mysteries of “how do you do that?”
- Freeing you to create with enthusiasm, find your artistic voice, and successfully express your creative intentions
My focus is providing a fun and uplifting environment within which we establish logical foundational “building blocks” (techniques, design principles, creative process skills & guides) upon which practical application approaches and decision making skills are built. My goal is to teach you to create based on what inspires and excites YOU from a solid foundation reflecting your unique personality and artistic hand!
I can’t wait to accompany you on this fantastic adventure!
Here are a few Video Demonstrations of my creative processes!
“Learned a lot! Thank you ~ Excellent Job!”
“Please do this again soon! Very organized and well supplemented with pictures…”
“Exceeded my expectations!”
