About
I owned and operated an art school in Ohio before relocating to Florida. I hold a Bachelor degree in Fine Art in Studio Arts. I teach what I know and always open to experimentation and exploring new techniques to create personally inspiring works of art.
I enjoy the satisfaction of sharing my love of art with others and helping them see their own way in art, their own inspiration and path to their style.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I begin by looking at some work that the student has done to get a sense of their style. Then we together develop a plan for pushing through their boundaries and going further with their work, and carrying that into other media.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I hold a BFA in Studio Arts. I have 6 years experience teaching studio art. Drawing, painting, sculpting.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Standard pricing is $25 per hour. One hour lessons per week for short term or long term periods of time.
How did you get started teaching?
I opened my own art studio after graduating from college in 2014.
What types of students have you worked with?
Children as young as 5 to adults as mature as 75
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
The most recent event I am fond of is when my husband brought home cake and ice cream for my birthday on Jan 24. It was a very relaxing day of Happy Birthday texts, naps, and gifts in many different forms. I enjoyed the fact we could all lay around together and be together.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
I'm not a "normal" teacher. When I teach art, it is me showing you my techniques to see if you might like to implement them in your own drawing process. There is no "one way" to be an artist. I want to nurture that any way that I can.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Are you able to critique my art, without criticizing my work? The answer is yes, definitely. Are willing to teach me new ways to approach a new medium? Am I willing to learn new ways to approach media I have already learned?
