Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Anna and I’m the founder of Oh, Artiz. I’m an art instructor by day and an illustrator by night.
My journey has been a long, but gratifying one. I created Prism Art School back in 2016 with the hopes of fostering a creative community for young artists in Los Angeles. Prism Art School won a variety of different regional, national, and even international art competitions! Some of the accolades and outlets to recognize Prism Art School include: Doodle for Google, International Ocean Awareness, Scholastic Arts, NASA, Toyota, LA Times & DWP, and many other art contests.
However, due to the unfortunate COVID-19 pandemic, we had no choice but to close down our physical locations as per California law.
However, when life gives me lemons, I try to “create” a fun batch of lemonade! Since then, I have been teaching art using ‘Outschool’ which is a digital platform and virtual learning online school based in San Francisco.
It has been such a gratifying experience for me to have personally [albeit virtually] met so many of the very talented, young, artists from all over North America. Some have even been from parts of Europe and Asia! I’ve learned that with a dedicated instructor, virtual learning is not only just possible, but it has the capacity to deliver quality effectiveness in learning -- just as much or better than in person education.
This realization sparked my passion for restoring the progress of the community of Prism Art School. This time, virtually and with a brand-new name: “Oh, Artiz!”
So, please, join our exciting community! Let’s create together!Reviews
