Drawing and painting have been a source of inspiration, passion, confidence, and fun. Art uses many high level thinking skills from analyzing, creating, application, and reflection. Allow me to assist you in fulling your creative potential while you develop and foster your brains creative side.

It is an environment anyone would wish to work in. Ben Henry is an excellent artist whose work in oil paints is truly memorizing with the use of a bright color palette and a whimsical take on everyday life.

There is a missconception that art takes talent, or good artists are gifted. Becoming good at art takes work, focus, desire, and having the mindset that you can reach your potential. Just like learning to play the piano, you will need to practice the skills to get better. Be patient, try hard and you will see results.
What do you want to get better at? for example portraits, anatomy, animals, landscapes, and what can they provide to make you reach your goal. Ask teachers if they can provide examples of their work or student work.
