Homework
1 hour per week. Homework is optional. I will discuss the possibility of homework with the learner, and if they would like it, I will s provide it, but if it’s too much I will not. I will often ask learners to finish a project after hours if we are close to being finished and I have demonstrated the skills needed and they are comfortable to finish on their own.Assessment
I will ask learners to send me pictures of their artwork every week so I can provide detailed feedback. I will provide feedback during class as well, but seeing a photo allows me to sit with it longer, and be more precise with my feedback.Class Experience
This is a one on one class. This format allows me to focus on learning art at the appropriate level for each learner. I can teach art for all ages as I have an extensive private and professional art and design. This class will be different for each learner. I will lean into the learners interests and skills to help them reach their own creative goals or simply become a more skilled artist. Conversations will be flowing and questions can be asked freely. The learner will have my full attention! Because I only have one learner, I will let their need determine the flow of the class. I LOVE teaching one on one. It gives me an opportunity to form a better relationship with the learner and teach them exactly what they need to know. I can teach a wide variety of drawing skills, graphic design, marketing, acrylic and watercolour painting techniques and creative thinking on a broad level. Most projects will be covered in a single class, however certain projects, like harder paintings, more complicated drawings, detailed drawings and involved creative thinking, may take more than one class to complete. I believe in teaching by example. This means that I paint/draw along with the learner, show them different techniques and explain the process as we embark on our creative journey. This class can accommodate all skill levels. I can teach art from scratch or help a learner develop a portfolio for college art applications.
Learning Goals
Learners who take this class on an ongoing basis, will develop as artists and creative.
Other Details
Supply List
We will discuss supplies during our first class. At minimum I require learners to keep a sketchbook, have a good set of graphite pencils (6B, 2B, HB and 2H), a good sharpener and eraser, and some black drawing pens.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Alberta College of Arts and Design
I love to teach art, and specialize in drawing (wide variety of styles and techniques), procreate, watercolour, and acrylic painting. When I teach, I like to lead by example. This means that I draw, paint and create with my learners. Throughout class I make myself available for questions, assistance and feedback.
I’ve been teaching art for over 6 years, and I have been creating art professionally since 2011. I have illustrated marketing materials for Denny’s, Newman’s Own, Duane Reade, Discovery Children’s Museum, The Mendes Foundation and other clients.
I also have extensive experience in advertising. I’ve been working as an art director/creative director for over 17 years. I worked in New York City for 10 years, Cambodia for one, and I currently work remotely out of my home office in Canada. In my advertising career I've made TV commercials, print campaigns, radio spots, online ads, videos and billboards (even some in Time Square.) I love thinking of cool ideas and bringing them to life. I am excited to share this skill with my students.
I believe that art is more than an applicable workplace skill. Art is a form of healthy self-expression and personal reflection. I also believe that art teaches the importance of patience and persistence. It is an education for the mind and soul.
For me, art is meditative. I own dozens of sketchbooks filled with drawings I’ve done throughout the years. Many pages contains a memory, emotion, thought or experience. As a mother, I find additional inspiration through my daughter and new son.
Art is everywhere, if you look for it. Children especially have a gift for finding beauty in the world. I hope to harness this gift so every child in my class can find their own unique, artistic voice.
