    A great little private school with a skilled teacher. The group classes reasonably priced and I’ve been learning a lot.

    I’ve really enjoyed the lessons Aaron has provided me. As a person just starting out, he made it easy to get started quickly and even provided me with homework assignments when I asked for them.

    Aaron is a very knowledgeable and patient teacher. He taught me the fundamentals of figure drawing and oil painting. After just a few weeks, I could see that my skills were improving. I have always wanted to pursue art, but didn’t grow up in a creative community. I’m so glad I reached out to Aaron and I am amazed by how far my drawing skills have come.

    Frequently asked questions

    Each student is different and as such, I need to address each student as an individual. The initial steps I take with new students are to understand what they want to accomplish, inquire about the type of art they wish to do, and assess their current skill level. From Here I can train and work with the individual to help them accomplish their goals. 

    I have a bachelor's degree in fine art and have been studying and practicing art for over 20 years, with over 10 years of professional training experience.

    I taught art in a studio setting for several years in the southern suburbs of MN. My primary focus was on teaching students from the ages of 16-25, helping them understand the fundamentals of drawing and painting.

    The cost for an Adult session in 2023,  meeting once a week for a private hour class is $50.00.  You must contact me to schedule. 

    If you have multiple attendees and would like to learn as a group please inquire.

    The schedules are flexible and forgiving. Please reach out to me for more details.

    I started teaching when I graduated with my Bachelor's degree in Fine Art. I taught for years, educating people between the ages of 14 - 25 on how to draw and paint. 

    I come from a family of artists and art teachers, they have helped me hone my skills so that I can share them with future artists.

    I am open to any type of student who desires to learn. The subject matter can be as you like it and I'll be happy to help you advance your art. If you want to draw classical portraits, science fiction robots, fantasy art, or even your favorite scenes from movies I'm happy to contribute to your success. (Please keep in mind that all subjects chosen to be drawn or painted must be appropriate)

    The majority of students I have worked with are between the ages of 14 and 30 years old. This being said I prefer to work with students of age 16 and older.

    The fundamentals of art are very important. The first thing you need to look for in a teacher is someone who will help you understand these fundamentals so you can apply them to your own chosen subject matter. 

    What do you want to learn?

    What are your expectations for your art?

    What are your goals in art?

    How do you expect your teacher to help you accomplish your goals?
