Glenna A. says, "Debbie has been my art teacher for nearly two years and was my son’s art teacher for many years. She is an extremely talented artist and exceptionally engaging art teacher. She is able to work with multiple mediums and materials and she is both flexible in terms of meeting students where they are at and in terms of what they are interested in doing/producing while at the same time providing enough guidance and structure to ensure that students actually learn. She is also gifted at teaching all ages from children to teens to adults. Her style is creative, open, and caring but also serious and well grounded in years of artistic experience and training. I always look forward to my lessons with her." Read more

Life Is Art In Motion And Vice Versa

Life Is Art In Motion And Vice Versa

The one thing I have learned about creative arts expression is that it is best when it captures the movement. One thing, the best thing I learned early on, is that life, and life expression is art and that is dynamic. Consider art in motion, like a really good action shot whether it be in sports or editorial or journalistic photography or illustration. Its moving both physically AND emotionally. It moves. And it moves you. I consider t2ge work I do a process of expression in relationship with Creativity in general-the process is bigger than myself. It's not all about an end goal or product but often includes a product. I find that when produc...

Hi there, I'm a mixed- media artist, based on Freestone, which is in West Sonoma. I have a BFA in printmaking from the San Francisco At institute, class of 2000. My process is to collage, (with images I've taken during the 35 years I spent living in SF and Oakland), weaving the photos into compositions which also include gestural painting, drawing and figure painting. I exhibit frequently in San Francisco, and am very excited to my next solo show, which opens Thursday, May 28.

Alfredo is a super mentor. He starts with basics but if you have experience he will go where you want. He works on a painting simultaneously with you. Color theory, Values, etc. Well worth it.

Julie has a wealth of watercolor technique, and she is able to impart it to her students with hands on demonstrations. Many students return year after year- Julie always has something new to offer.

Mandar is an amazing artist and he’s equally as wonderful with kids. This is our second year in painting class with Mandar and my two 7 year olds love it! Besides teaching them skills, Mandar always comes up with creative and engaging projects. My boys have come home with many new pieces of art they are very proud of (and are frame worthy at home too). Highly recommend!
