Description

Class Experience

- Learners will understand how artists can use science to create art. 
- Learners will apply what they have learned about scientific illustration to create their own drawings of animals we explore during class. 
I am a classroom teacher with a masters in education, and have been a private art tutor for the past 6 years. I am an artist and participate in several art shows each year around the DC Metro area. I have worked with several National Geographic scientific illustrators, and have loved incorporating nature into my art.  I grew up in Florida where spend my time scuba diving and leading kayak tours in the Indian River. I love nature, and I love art! Most weekends you can find me and my wife either bird watching or drawing.
