I have been teaching art to elementary age since 1993. I offer private and semi-private art lessons in my own studio to children through teens. I have extensive experience in developing art lessons for the classroom structure. I personally work in many mediums for an array of expression in creating works of art. I enjoy sharing my expertise with others in the field of visual arts, contemporary crafts and art history. Art is my passion, and I believe the practice and appreciation of all the arts provides an essential tool to better understanding of other cultures and individuals. Personally, art has given me the path for personal growth and a better understanding of the world.
