Class Experience

I will teach the basics of drawing realism. I will explain how to create the dimension of a shape using shading. I will explain how to create a drawing of an apple using old master techniques. I will create exercises for students to practise their drawing, giving them skills to draw realism. There will be student interaction. Students will be encouraged to ask questions. We will have a class discussion at the end of class. We will also discuss the importance of using drawing to create the structure of paintings.

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.   
I hold a BFA in painting from The San Francisco Art Institute. 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.
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. I luckily watched this master painter paint and learned so much from him. I will always be grateful for this experience and the skills I had learned. 
Arts educator,
