    I did not actually have a session with Marina but she was gracious enough to talk to me on the phone about various options I might have for creating the illustrations for a book I am working on. Anyone wanting a very qualified and talented instructor should contact her. I am only now beginning the conceptualization of my book and it will be awhile before I can visualize the kinds of illustrations I need. Thank you to Lessons.com for connecting me to Marina.

    I love that Marina can bring out creativity and skills for each individual student. She also encourages us to use alternative art materials that are environmental friendly. I love how Marina inspires us to do great arts.

    I started learning to paint and draw from Marina when I was about six years old and since then I have been accepted into the Maryland Institute College for the Arts. Marina has amazing technique and because of this you gain a sturdy foundation in drawing and painting what you see. However, she also understands the value of self-expression and style so she always reminds students to remember that theyre not cameras, theyre humans, they do not take photographs. But of course never sacrificing technical skill. I highly recommend her as a teacher and if you want hard evidence of her teaching skills, the proof is in the pudding, her students artwork is always gorgeous and her own artwork as well!

    She has excellent knowledge of art history and talent. Marina is charismatic, supportive and a great mentor. She motivates her students to push their artistic boundaries, develop discipline, and encourages us to think outside the box. I would not be the artist I am today without all her guidance!

    Frequently asked questions

    Start with the basics to understand what skills the student has, then determine best approach to start the instruction. Every person is different and will have some areas they need to work on. 

    BA in visual arts

    25 dollars per hour at my studio. 30 dollars per hour if I travel to the student.

    Many years ago, I was approach by a friend who ask me for art lessons; from there, it grew so fast that I built an art school where I being teaching since. 

    I worked with young children, young adults and adults. 

    One of my students, recently won an art contest in her school district. She was thrilled. 

    Make sure you connect with the teacher. Also, look at the teacher’s artwork to see if it fits your needs.
