ART LESSONS
I believe that each art student has an inherent internal compass and needs a positive and a non-competitive environment to develop his or hers strength in expressing their artistic view.
I combine a contemporary approach to art with traditional methods of drawing and painting, encouraging students to explore new materials, techniques and inviting experimentation in their work.
