Class Experience

In this one time class students will paint a beautiful summer landscape full of summery deep blue skies and greenery. 
Class will begin with a brief discussion of the image we are going to paint,  followed by practicing some techniques and color mixing, and then we will spend the remainder of our class time working on the landscape painting. 

My teaching style is relaxed and calm with a focus on the process rather than the end result. No painting experience is necessary, though it is helpful to have. I firmly believe that anyone with a desire to learn and a good attitude can have a really nice time in this class! 

Feel free to message me if you have any questions, or want to schedule a private class.

Profile

Teacher expertise and credentials

Hi there! 

My name is Abi. My passion and expertise are in drawing and watercolor painting, but I also dabble in and have taught the basics in a few other mediums, such as acrylic painting, oil pastel, charcoal, and colored pencil.

I’ve been drawing and painting since very early childhood and have always embraced it as a part of who I am, and known it to be valuable resource in my life. A lot of my inspiration comes from the landscapes around me, or the feelings events, the weather, and books inspire in me. I believe that art is an outlet for both processing feelings or events through life, and is an underused tool to develop skills in observation and critical thinking. My teaching style is calm and centered in being a safe space and showing that the creative process can provide joy and peace. Mistakes happen, but its never the end of the world or something to be ashamed of. I'm dedicated to helping people better understand the world around them and to developing relationships to enrich life through art. I believe anyone who is interested and willing to try can become an artist. 

I have been an art teacher for four years, and before that had six years of experience in support roles providing supervision and guidance to children within classroom and day-care settings.


In my free time I enjoy being outside, knitting, crocheting and am a big fiction reader. This year I hope to use my sketchbook practice to document my walks, bird sightings, and travels.
