About

Classes are offered by a certified art teacher and experienced artist. From drawing to painting, and jewelry making to soap making. Working with children of all ages and adults instructing techniques which help build the confidence needed to express through several art mediums. The best reward from instructing art is the outcome of the masterpiece created.

What I enjoy most about the work I do is the process. It's amazing how just a few steps turns into a masterpiece, an expression, a message, and sometimes even a story. I love when students tell me what they can't do and I teach them what they can do and they show what they can do.

"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up"

-Pablo Picasso

    10 years in education 

    10 year freelancer 

    I first started as a freelance graphic artist in 2011 after graduating from the university. I met a school principal at my part time job and she offered me to apply as substitute teacher at the school. Teaching came so natural to me that I ended up becoming a long term sub teacher, and then from there progressed to Teachers Assistant, Special Education Instructor, In school suspension instructor, English teacher, and now currently a high school art teacher and the owner of a small art business I'm building. I love showering my community with my love and passion for art and seeing the outcome of every creation. 

    I've worked with all types of students as such as, students on the spectrum high and low, elderly students, non experienced students, students with ADHD or ADD. I've also worked with challenging students with behavior issues and emotional issues. Grade levels EC-12?and older.
