About
I work with all ages and teach all styles. I provide all the materials. If you sign up for a set of classes, you will never loose them if you can’t attend a class. You buy 5 classes, I owe you 5 classes no matter how long it will take to complete them. You can always reschedule if needed. I have a very large studio to Accommodate the Freedom of expression. I have been teaching painting since 2009 with a 100% success rate. I have been painting since 1975 and am well experienced in what to do and what not to do. I have small class groups to best accommodate each student. Since all student are different from one another, I first have an interview with them to establish a workable direction for their goals and needs. Each student is trained in a customized way to promote the individuality. My goal always starts with strengthening the bases to which the training builds on. I aim for building awareness, And knowledge of Materials and technics . Therefore, Increasing the confidence and reducing the fear. I work hard to bring out the best in each individual, and together we will not settle for less . Success is the goal, no matter how ambitious or hard it seems to achieve. Together we will always get there . ALWAYS

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
With all students, I first like to learn about them as a person, their likes and dislikes, their fears and confidence, their goals and expectation and so on. To put them at ease, I tell them about how passionate I am in painting and teaching. Once we stablish that connection, together we would come up with a plan of action to maximize the learning. Increase confidence and reduce fears. At the students pace. Together we shall explore way to reach the desired goal. I start by making sure all the preliminary foundation is layed before we start painting. Awareness and knowledge is a key to a good start. Then we shall explore The approach and techniques Of how to paint any subject matter. Everything about teaching a student, entry level or not, is customized to best fit the needs of the student . The student shall learn not to be ofraid of making mistakes. That, learning what not to do is just as important as what to do.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
i have 46 years of experience in painting and have been a professional artist with my own retail galleries since 1987.
