Class Experience

Materials and subject matter depends on the desired focus of the student.
I teach both realistic drawing and creative drawing. Parent and student will choose the style of drawing and what level will be taught.

Learn to Draw realism: 
Explore the basics. How to use line, shape, shading and proportion to create a wonderful realistic drawing. We will draw objects such as an apple, a coffee mug and flowers. As the student progresses we will choose what the student is interested in drawing. Such as animals, landscapes, the human figure. 

Learn Creative Drawing:
My creative drawing class will focus on freeing up creative energy to enable the student to enjoy creating drawings in their own style.
We will watch videos of great artists such as Picasso drawing to demonstrate creative drawing.

Learning Goals

Students will develop drawing skills at their own pace.

Profile

Teacher expertise and credentials

Bachelor's Degree in Music or Theatre or Arts from The San Francisco Art Institute

My name is Lynda Diamond. I teach art to children, teens and adults. My painting and drawing classes focus on an exploration of line, colour and content drawing objects such as flowers or fruit to abstract geometric shapes. My Art History classes explore the different ways art has evolved and influences our lives.   
I hold a BFA in painting from The San Francisco Art Institute. I attended The San Francisco Art Institute as a scholarship student. I have been teaching children, teens and adults painting and drawing for thirteen years. As an independent teacher. I offer a variety of class options. These options are one-day classes, ongoing and eight-week courses. I often teach art privately. I have taught college-level painting classes at Nova Scotia Community College.  
For the last two years, I have been teaching online ESL and drawing to kids in China. 
My art classes are always light-hearted in spirit. 
I believe that learning to paint and draw is great fun! My art students always want to return for more classes because my classes are so enjoyable.
I am now teaching Art History classes too! I am uniquely qualified to teach Art History as the techniques I use in my own art-making comes from great artists from the past. 
Here's an interesting note about me. I wanted to study with a great painter that lives in Norway. One day I flew to Norway. Luckily, I watched this master painter paint and learned so much from him. I will always be grateful for this experience and for the skills I had learned.
