Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi there! I’m Binita. I’ve been passionate about art for over 15 years, and I love sharing that passion with others. As a self-taught artist, I enjoy helping students find their own unique voice in art and guiding them as they grow their skills.
I teach students of all ages, from beginners to more experienced artists, and I focus on creating fun, hands-on lessons that encourage creativity and self-expression. I believe that everyone can make something beautiful, and I’m here to help each student discover their artistic potential.
I love working with all kinds of art materials—pencils, watercolor pencils, ink pens, soft pastels, watercolor, textured art, and acrylics. My favorite lessons are the ones where we get to experiment with different tools and techniques, and where students feel free to create whatever they imagine!
I’m based in Toronto, and I share my artwork and process on Instagram. Feel free to check out my latest creations and get a sneak peek into my art journey! @binnipaints
I’m really looking forward to helping my students have fun while learning and creating art. I hope my enthusiasm for art helps them enjoy the process and discover how amazing their creativity can be!Reviews
