Private Art Lesson – Personalized 1:1 Drawing & Painting Instruction  

Unlock creativity with a customized private art lesson designed for young artists! In this one-time, one-on-one class, students explore drawing and painting techniques tailored to their interests, with a professional artist. Each 25-minute session includes experimentation, skill-building, and hands-on practice in a fun and supportive learning environment.  

🎨 Flexible & Personalized – We focus on the tools, styles, and techniques that excite the student.  
🎨 Interactive & Visual Learning – I use two cameras for clear, close-up demonstrations of my hands and workspace.  
🎨 Beyond the Lesson – Students receive practice ideas and inspiration to continue learning between sessions.  

Explore a Variety of Art Topics:  
🖌 Realistic Drawing – Master shading, proportions, and lifelike details.  
🖌 Cute Kawaii Drawing – Create adorable characters with simple, fun techniques.  
🖌 Portfolio Review – Get feedback to improve and refine artwork.  
🖌 Watercolor Painting – Learn blending, washes, and expressive brushwork.  
🖌 Acrylic Painting – Explore color mixing, layering, and bold compositions.  
🖌 Mixed Media & Gelli Printing – Combine materials for unique textures and effects.  
🖌 Perspective Drawing – Develop depth and dimension in artwork.  

What to Expect in Class:  
✅ Personalized Instruction – We start with a warm greeting and discuss the student’s artistic goals.  
✅ Step-by-Step Guidance – Techniques are demonstrated using close-up camera angles for clarity.  
✅ Encouraging Feedback – I provide supportive tips to help students grow in confidence and skill.  
✅ Wrap-Up & Next Steps – Before we say goodbye, I share ideas for continued practice and creative exploration.  

A Supportive & Creative Learning Environment  
Every artist has their own unique voice! I encourage students to communicate in whatever way feels most comfortable—whether through discussion, chat, or by sharing their work. My goal is to nurture confidence and creativity in every learner.  

🔹 Perfect for beginners and experienced young artists looking to explore new techniques, build a portfolio, or simply enjoy the creative process!  One hour sessions are also available.
