Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Evaluation of skill level as well as interest level.
Develop a lesson plan that will work with each individual students interest and / or need. I like to focus with beginner students, this way we can work away from bad habits in the studio process. I also focus on a traditional / abstract appraoch to artwork, which I feel is a unique way to understand art making.
I would prefer a one on one appraoch to keep the focus on art making and the learning of.
