About
I enjoy seeing the student evolve and discover new things about their talent. Beginner student is a place of discovery as you develop more understanding form composition design you can understand values you have a better language in which to create from.
I understand that drawing and painting takes time it is not something you just start doing it something you have to develop confidence and repetition with that repetition comes exploring the things that make you excited about art. Good observation skills. A willingness to go deeper and deeper into the exploration of art and design composition willing to take risk and still understand the rules that apply in order to break them.
